Saint Nicholas Monastery in Nikolo-Malica, Orthodox monastery in Nikolo-Malica, Russia.

Saint Nicholas Monastery in Nikolo-Malica is an Orthodox complex rebuilt in the neo-Byzantine style after 2008. Its Church of the Intercession of the Theotokos, erected in 2008–2010, stands on the site of a mid-18th-century church destroyed in Soviet times. The former baroque Cathedral of the All-Merciful Saviour, built in 1751–1760, was lost; the monastery also has a house church of All Athonite Saints, built in 2017–2019.

Founded between 1584 and 1595 on the Shevyakov wasteland during the reign of Tsar Feodor III, the monastery burned down completely around 1675; only the icon of Saint Nicholas survived. Grigory Ovtsyn funded a five-domed Church of Christ the Merciful the following year, and after 1751 the complex was rebuilt in Russian Baroque style. Services ceased in 1939, and the monastery was re-established by decree of the Holy Synod on 23 June 2008.

The monastery is named after the Malitsa river, which once curved around it to the north and west before joining the Mezhurka. Since its revival in 2008 it follows the Athonite rule, and Byzantine chant holds a central place in its services. A Sunday school and an icon-painting workshop operate at the monastery.

The monastery is located near the village of Nikolo-Malica in Tver region and welcomes visitors to explore its grounds. The terrain is relatively easy to navigate, and comfortable shoes are recommended when walking between the different structures.

The monastery's wonder-working icon of Saint Nicholas, painted on canvas glued to a board in the early 17th century, measures about 24.5 by 20 cm and shows Saints Boris and Gleb on its margins. According to tradition, it survived the 1675 fire with a scorched back but an intact face.
