Krasnohirsk Monastery, Orthodox monastery in Zolotonosha Raion, Ukraine.

The monastery includes a stone Pokrovsky church, built in 1859, situated on a hill near the Zolotonosha River in central Ukraine.

A monk from Constantinople founded this religious complex at the end of the 16th century, starting with a cave dwelling on the Red Hill.

The monastery houses the miraculous Dubensky Icon of the Mother of God, which draws Orthodox believers from across Ukraine for regular pilgrimages.

The monastery maintains agricultural activities with 99 nuns tending to vegetable gardens, beekeeping operations, and cattle breeding for self-sustainability.

During the 1922 Bolshevik persecution, more than 700 nuns were expelled from the monastery, which later reopened during World War II with 15 nuns.
