Donskoy Starocherkassk Monastery
Donskoy Starocherkassk Monastery, Orthodox monastery in Starocherkasskaya, Russia.
The religious complex includes a katholikon built between 1756 and 1761, positioned along the banks of the Don River in Rostov Oblast.
The monastery occupies the site of former Efremov Convent, which operated from 1837 until 1927 when Soviet authorities ordered its closure.
The monastery maintains traditional Russian Orthodox practices and houses a substantial Our Lady of the Don icon, donated by Gnilovskaya village Cossacks in 1995.
Visitors can access the monastery grounds daily, with religious services conducted according to the Orthodox calendar and main celebrations occurring on August 19.
The monastery received substantial restoration efforts after its 1994 reestablishment, including installation of new bells and renovation of the Don Church.
