Avraamiev Monastery, Orthodox monastery in Smolensk, Russia
The Avraamiev Monastery features multiple buildings with traditional Russian ecclesiastical design elements and stone structures situated along the Dnieper River banks.
Founded in the 12th century, the monastery served as both a religious sanctuary and a defensive fortress within the southern protective belt around Moscow.
The monastery holds a collection of religious artifacts and manuscripts that document centuries of Russian Orthodox practices and monastic traditions.

The monastery transformed into a museum of women's emancipation in 1922 during the Bolshevik period before returning to its religious functions in 1943.
