Nikitsky Convent, Orthodox monastery in Kashira, Russia.
The Nikitsky Convent stands within stone walls, featuring traditional Russian religious architecture with multiple structures arranged around central courtyards.
Founded in the early 16th century, this monastery developed into a significant religious center where women from noble families sought spiritual enlightenment.
The monastery maintains Orthodox Christian traditions through regular services, religious ceremonies, and educational programs about Russian spiritual practices.
Visitors need to wear appropriate clothing covering shoulders and knees, and women must cover their heads when entering the monastery buildings.
The monastery grounds include a cemetery with a circular chapel built in 1702, creating a natural buffer between the religious complex and urban areas.
