Bizukov Monastery

The monastery features a central Exaltation of the Holy Cross Cathedral and five additional churches within its stone walls along the Dnieper River.

The monastery, established in the first half of the 17th century by the Saltykov-Morozov family, received independence from local bishops through patriarchal stavropegy in 1689.

The monastery maintained a theological seminary starting from 1913, providing religious education to students from the surrounding monastic settlement.

Visitors can access multiple guest houses and accommodations within the monastery grounds, which remain active for religious services and ceremonies.

The monastery operated its own power station in the early 20th century, supporting various facilities including mills, wineries, and workshops.
