Holy Trinity monastery in Topolevka, Orthodox monastery in Topolevka, Ukraine
Holy Trinity monastery in Topolevka is an Orthodox monastery in Ukraine characterized by its traditional Slavic architecture and religious structures. The complex includes three churches adorned with icons, surrounding stone walls, and multiple bell towers that define its layout.
The monastery was founded in 1864 next to a spring dedicated to Saint Paraskeva of Rome. After closing in 1923, it remained inactive until reopening in 1993 following a decades-long interruption.
The monastery is a place where Orthodox worship and daily monastic life continue today through regular services and prayer. Visitors can observe how the community structures their time around spiritual practice.
The grounds are open to visitors daily and offer guided tours through the complex as well as accommodations for those seeking overnight stays. Three natural springs on the property are accessible to guests.
The monastery houses a fragment of Saint Paraskeva's relics and operates workshops where nuns create traditional Orthodox items and food products. This hands-on work forms part of the daily monastic life and keeps traditional skills alive.
