Svyato-Troitsky Monastery of Moyka, Orthodox monastery in Russia.

The monastery includes the Holy Trinity Cathedral constructed in 1748 and the Our Lady of Tolga Church built in 1713 near the river.

During the Polish-Muscovite Wars, the monastery endured a 16-month siege from September 1608 to January 1610 with 2,400 defenders against 30,000 attackers.

The monastery reopened in 1993 after operating as a komsomol club, receiving visits from Patriarch Alexius II in 1996 and 2001.

The monastery buildings have maintained protected status as architectural monuments since 1946, ensuring their preservation for future generations.

The monastery defenders executed a successful attack against Polish forces in November 1608, destroying enemy artillery while losing only two soldiers.
