Mirozhsky Monastery, Orthodox monastery in Pskov, Russia

The Mirozhsky Monastery stands at the confluence of Mirozha and Velikaya rivers, featuring stone buildings and religious structures from different centuries.

Founded in 1156, this religious complex includes the Christ's Transfiguration Cathedral, which remains one of only two pre-Mongol structures still present in Pskov.

The monastery holds a collection of preserved 12th-century frescoes that illustrate biblical narratives and represent early Russian Orthodox artistic traditions.

The monastery complex opens daily for visitors and religious services, located twenty minutes by foot from central Pskov near the riverbank.

The cathedral's interior contains eighty percent of its original medieval frescoes, making it one of the most complete surviving Byzantine painting collections.
