Monaster Narodzenia św. Jana Chrzciciela w Leuszynie, Orthodox monastery in Leushino, Russia.

The monastery complex includes several buildings constructed in Byzantine-Russian architectural style with traditional onion domes and ornate decorations.

Founded in 1875, the monastery operated until 1927 when Soviet authorities closed it and converted the buildings into a prison and archive storage.

The monastery served as a center for Orthodox religious education, maintaining a school for local children and a dedicated institution for young women.

Located at coordinates 58.78139N, 38.08056E, the monastery reopened in 2000 and now accepts visitors for religious services and prayer.

The monastery's first abbess, Serafina Sulimova, directed the choir and later became a martyr, leading to her canonization by the Russian Orthodox Church.

Inception: 1875

GPS coordinates: 58.78139,38.08056
