Belogorsky Monastery, Orthodox monastery in Kungursky District, Russia
The Belogorsky Convent stands on White Mountain with a massive cathedral accommodating 8000 people and numerous monastic buildings across its grounds.
The monastery was established in 1891 to commemorate the survival of Crown Prince Nicholas from an incident in Japan, with its first wooden church completed in 1894.
The monastery published a religious journal called Voice of Duty and maintained a school where orphaned boys learned reading, church singing, and various crafts.
The monastery complex includes multiple buildings with separate quarters for senior brothers, workshops for carpentry and metalwork, and residential facilities for visiting pilgrims.
During World War II, the monastery buildings served as a rehabilitation center for wounded soldiers, while in the 1930s they housed camps for displaced persons.
