Vysotsky Monastery, Orthodox monastery in Serpukhov, Russia
The monastery stands on a hill with five blue domes of the Cathedral of the Conception of Saint Anne dominating the surrounding landscape.
Prince Vladimir the Bold and Saint Sergius of Radonezh established the monastery in 1374 as part of a defensive system for Moscow principality.
The monastery contains over 200 holy relics, including remains of Saint Athanasius the Younger discovered in 1994 within the monastery walls.
Daily services include prayers before the miraculous icon of the Mother of God 'The Inexhaustible Chalice', known for helping people with addictions.
The monastery served as a burial place for Serpukhov warriors who died in the Battle of Kulikovo against the Golden Horde in 1380.
