Петровский монастырь, Former monastery in Yaroslavl, Russia.
The monastery complex stands on the banks of the Volga River at the entrance of the October Bridge in central Yaroslavl.
Founded around 1100, the monastery served as a burial place for Yaroslavl princes, including Prince Mikhail Fedorovich and his mother Anastasia.
The monastery received the status of archimandrite, indicating its high rank among religious institutions in medieval Russia.
The monastery site transformed into a bridge entrance in 1961, with the original structures removed during the construction of October Bridge.
The annual memorial service for buried princes continued at the monastery grounds even after its closure until the 18th century.
