Saint Macarius of Unzha Monastery
Saint Macarius of Unzha Monastery, Orthodox monastery in Reshma, Russia.
The monastery contains stone structures including the Gate Church of Archangel Michael from 1670 and the Cathedral of Holy Trinity from 1658.
Saint Macarius founded multiple religious centers along the Volga River until Tatar attacks in 1439 led him to establish this final monastery.
Religious ceremonies and prayers occur daily in the monastery, following traditions established since its foundation in the 15th century.
The monastery accepts visitors during daylight hours and requires appropriate clothing, with women needing to wear head coverings and long skirts.
The monastery holds the authenticated head relic of Saint Macarius, returned to the complex in 2006 after decades of displacement.
