Tolga monastery, Orthodox monastery in Yaroslavl, Russia
The Tolga Monastery sits on the left bank of the Volga River, featuring stone walls, multiple churches, and a cedar grove within its grounds.
Bishop Prokhor founded the monastery in 1314 after discovering an icon of the Virgin Mary, which later became the main religious relic of the complex.
The monastery maintains Russian Orthodox traditions through daily services, religious ceremonies, and educational programs for visitors interested in Orthodox spirituality.
Visitors can access the monastery daily from 6:00 AM to 8:00 PM, with guided tours available in Russian language through advance reservations.
The monastery grounds include a 17th-century cedar garden, containing trees that have survived for over four centuries in this northern climate.
