This 16th-century monastery was built to commemorate what was considered a miraculous victory over Tatar troops, attributed to the powers of the Donskaya Icon.
Reviewed By Alexander_Kudrin - Samara, Russia
One of the oldest and most beautiful Orthodox monasteries is located near the Shabolovskaya metro station. The monastery is surrounded by a cozy square, powerful thick walls and patterned towers. Founded in 1591 on the site where the Russian military camp was located. He is directly subordinate to the Patriarch of Moscow and All Russia. The oldest known cemetery is located in the Donskoy Monastery, where many famous people are buried. It is interesting to wander between the graves scattered across the territory of the necropolis, meeting familiar names. There are also amazingly beautiful high reliefs of the destroyed Cathedral of Christ the Savior. You can spend 2-3 hours to visit this place.
