Fronołów – a stop on the Siedlce–Czeremcha railway line located in the village of Mierzwice-Kolonia, in the Masovian Voivodeship, Poland. The name Fronołów is supposedly derived from the surname of the Russian engineer Fronołów, who was supposed to have designed a steel railway bridge at this location. However, this information is false. The bridge was designed by Lavr Proskurjakov. The name Fronołów likely comes from a corruption of the name of the nearby village of Franopol.

Franciscan Church in Drohiczyn, dedicated to the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary – according to the monastery tradition recorded in 1797 by Father Karol Gaudenty Żero (1743–1802) in his work entitled "Fenix de pulveribus resuscitatus svaviter suam candit modulenam," the Franciscan convent in Drohiczyn was founded by Mikołaj Nassuta, mentioned in 1430 as the starost of Drohiczyn. The monks are said to have settled on a square known as "Narożnik" (Corner). The first endowments for the monks were confirmed in 1407 by Duke Witold Kiejstutowicz, who also provided offerings from the castle. During the reign of Janusz I the Elder, Duke of Mazovia, a wooden monastery and church dedicated to the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary were built in 1409. In 1451, the guardian was Father Jan of Ruda, and in 1470, Father Szymon of Kraków. In the years 1460–1470, funds for the monastery were donated by, among others, the Drohicz court assessor Maciej Miłkowski (d. ca. 1478) and his wife Katarzyna. The Franciscan monastery was burned down by dissenters in 1583, and around 1595, the wooden church burned down. In 1595–1596, it was rebuilt thanks to the efforts of Father Mateusz Studziński, guardian, but in 1601, both buildings were destroyed by fire again. Another wooden Franciscan church was built in 1615 through the efforts of the guardian, Father Bartłomiej Klucziata vel Klimczata, and consecrated on October 4, 1618, by the titular bishop of Argivensis and suffragan of Lutsk, Father Stanisław Udrzycki (d. 1621). During this period, a new monastery building was constructed. In 1657, during the Swedish Deluge, following Misericordiae Sunday, the monastery was destroyed again, and several monks were murdered by Cossack, Transylvanian, and Swedish troops commanded by Magnus Gabriel de La Gardie.

Benedictine Church in Drohiczyn, dedicated to All Saints – a church belonging to the Benedictine Sisters. In 1621, Wojciech Niemira brought Benedictine Sisters from Toruń to the church dedicated to All Saints, which had existed since 1560. The building was built between 1734 and 1738, funded by Wiktoryn Kuczyński. The Benedictines taught girls from the nobility. Despite restrictions, the Benedictines of Drohiczyn continued their educational activities until the order was dissolved in 1865. By the end of the 19th century, the monastery and church had fallen into serious disrepair. It was then that Krystyn Ostrowski, the owner of the neighboring village of Korczew, began efforts to rebuild the Benedictine church and convent. In 1919, the Committee for the Reconstruction of the Church and Monastery of the Benedictine Sisters was established. Thanks to its efforts, the vaults were renovated, windows were installed, and floors were laid during the interwar period. During the interwar period, the prefect of the Drohicze high school, Father Kazimierz Dobrzycki, took charge of the reconstruction. During this time, the church served as a school church. The building features a Rococo façade.
