Glinsk Hermitage, Orthodox monastery in Sosnivka, Ukraine

The Nativity of the Theotokos Stavropegial Male Monastery consists of multiple structures including dormitories, prayer halls, and perimeter walls near the Russian border.

Founded in 1648 by monks from Molchensky Monastery in Putivl, the establishment gained recognition after the discovery of a Nativity of the Theotokos icon.

The monastery functions as a spiritual center where monks maintain daily routines of communal prayers, study sessions, and work activities similar to Mount Athos practices.

The monastery welcomes visitors for religious services and houses the relics of ten recognized elders, though access remains limited due to regional road conditions.

The name derives from the clay deposits that potters historically extracted from the surrounding area, which influenced local craftsmanship and monastery development.
