The Church of the Dormition of the Theotokos is a parish church of the Polish Orthodox Church located in Boćki, part of the Bielsk Podlaski Deanery of the Diocese of Warsaw and Bielsk. The church is situated in the center of the village, at Armii Krajowej Square.
The Orthodox parish in Boćki has existed since the early 16th century. After the signing of the Union of Brest, it adopted the Union's provisions, and the initial Uniate church in the village was a wooden structure. The brick church of this rite was constructed, according to various sources, in the 18th century, between 1819 and 1824, or in 1820. In 1839, following the decisions of the Synod of Polotsk, the local parish was incorporated into the Russian Orthodox Church. After the January Uprising, under the initiative of Ignacy Boreysza, the head of the Bielsk County, the building was reconstructed to obscure its original architecture and make it resemble Orthodox churches in native Russian lands.
The building was damaged during World War I. In independent Poland, it initially functioned as a branch of the Parish of St. Michael the Archangel in Bielsk Podlaski, and from 1929, it again served as a parish church. It suffered significant damage during World War II when both towers and the roof collapsed due to German shelling. In 1943, it was provisionally reconstructed. The original appearance of the building was restored during a comprehensive renovation between 1999 and 2002. It is the only brick Orthodox church with two towers in the Podlachia region.
