Marfo-Mariinsky Convent, Orthodox monastery in Moscow, Russia
The Marfo-Mariinsky Convent features architecture by Alexei Shchusev, including the Church of Saints Martha and Mary and the Holy Protection Cathedral.
Grand Duchess Elizabeth Feodorovna established the convent in 1908 after her husband's assassination, selling her possessions to create a center for medical care.
Artist Mikhail Nesterov decorated the church walls with paintings and bas-reliefs incorporating Russian folklore elements, including unicorns and Firebirds.
The convent grounds remain open daily, offering visitors access to gardens with benches and gazebos throughout the premises.
The sisters at Marfo-Mariinsky followed a structured schedule beginning at 6:00 AM, combining religious services with medical care and community assistance.
