Novinsky Monastery, Russian Orthodox monastery in central Moscow, Russia
The monastery complex includes multiple religious structures, such as the Cathedral of Transfiguration and the Church of the Sign, along with a prominent bell tower.
Founded in 1401, the monastery served as a defensive structure against Crimean Tatar attacks in 1571 and 1591, successfully protecting the southeastern approach to Moscow.
The Cathedral of Transfiguration contains frescoes created by prominent Muscovite painters of the 17th century, representing Russian Orthodox artistic traditions.
The monastery welcomes visitors daily, with regular religious services held in its churches and guided tours available for exploring the historical buildings.
During the Soviet period, the monastery complex transformed from a religious institution to a prison, then a police facility, before becoming an art restoration institute.
