Monastère Saint-Corneille de la Komela
Monastère Saint-Corneille de la Komela, Orthodox monastery in Kornilyevo, Russia
The religious complex consists of stone buildings and churches positioned along the Nurma River, 50 kilometers from Vologda and 5 kilometers from Gryazovets.
Saint Cornelius founded the monastery in 1497, constructing the first wooden church dedicated to the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary in 1501.
Between 1515 and 1529, Saint Cornelius wrote the third Russian monastic charter, establishing strict guidelines for the monks' daily activities and spiritual practices.
The monastery housed a medical facility in the 19th century, utilizing a mineral spring discovered in 1765 to provide cold and warm therapeutic baths.
The monastery library contained numerous ancient manuscripts and books until 1924, when the complex closed and many artifacts transferred to the Vologda Museum.
