Saint Pantaleon Church and Monastery in Odesa

Saint Pantaleon Church and Monastery in Odesa, Orthodox cathedral and monastery in Prymorskyi Raion, Odesa, Ukraine.

Saint Pantaleon Church and Monastery is a five-domed, three-storey Orthodox church on Panteleimonivska Street, built of stone quarried on Mount Athos and shipped to Odesa. Its facade carries eight mosaic windows and the church name in mosaic; the main hall holds a new iconostasis with icons in Byzantine style, and the walls of the three storeys along the main staircase are painted.

An Athonite metochion was founded here in 1876; its five-domed, three-storey stone church, built of stone brought from Mount Athos, was consecrated on 28 December 1895. Soviet authorities closed it in 1923, and it reopened on 15 June 1943, when the Odesa Theological Seminary was also established. Closed again in 1961, it was revived as a monastery in 1995 with the blessing of Metropolitan Agafangel.

The monastery keeps the feast of Saint Pantaleon on 8 December, when Metropolitan Agafangel consecrated the main altar in 1996 and gave the community a relic of the saint brought from Mount Athos. The icon of the Mother of God "It Is Truly Meet" is the object of particular veneration here.

The monastery stands on Panteleimonivska Street in Odesa's Prymorskyi district, not in the eastern outskirts. Services resumed in the church in 1990, and the monastery was founded in 1995, so it functions as an active men's cloister. Visitors should dress modestly and keep quiet during services; the grounds are a working monastic site rather than a museum.

The church was built from stone quarried on Mount Athos and shipped to Odesa. On 8 December 1996 Metropolitan Agafangel consecrated the main altar to Saint Pantaleon and gave the monastery a relic of the saint brought from Athos; the icon of the Theotokos "Axion Estin" is also venerated here.
