St. Nicholas Monastery, 14th century Orthodox monastery in Pereslavl-Zalessky, Russia
The Saint Nicholas Monastery features a 28-meter bell tower, multiple churches, and stone walls surrounding the religious structures on its territory.
Saint Dmitry Prilutsky established the monastery in 1348 on marshy lands, and it underwent several reconstructions after destructions by Tatar raids in 1382.
The monastery holds valuable religious objects including the Korsun Cross and relics from 84 Kiev Pechersk saints in a special shrine.
The monastery complex opens daily from 8 AM to 8 PM, welcoming visitors at 43 Gagarina Street with free entry and permission for photography.
The monastery includes a branch in Godenovo village containing sacred springs and operates the Pereslavl Orthodox Gymnasium named after Alexander Nevsky.
