Inkerman Cave Monastery, Cave monastery in Inkerman, Crimea.
The monastery complex extends across multiple levels within white limestone cliffs, featuring eight churches connected through passages carved into the rock.
Founded in 1850 on the site of an 8th-century Byzantine monastery, the complex housed the relics of Saint Clement before their transfer to Rome.
The monastery maintains Orthodox Christian traditions through regular services, representing a center of religious practice in the Crimean region.
Visitors can reach the monastery through local transportation from Sevastopol, with year-round access to explore the cave churches and living quarters.
The monastery chambers utilize natural cave formations, incorporating rock-carved passages that channel daylight through the limestone structure.
