Kyzyltash Monastery, Orthodox monastery in Krasnokamianka, Ukraine.
The monastery stands at 400 meters above sea level in the mountains near a healing spring of Saint Stephen in the Kizil-Tash ridge valley.
Archbishop Innokenty of Kherson and Taurida founded the monastery in 1856, followed by significant expansion under Abbot Parfeny until his death in 1866.
The monastery preserves fragments of relics from numerous Orthodox saints, including Saint Innocent of Kherson and Saint Gabriel of Mount Athos.
Visitors need to present identification documents due to the proximity of military facilities, and the monastery lies 35 kilometers west of Feodosia.
The monastery buildings were destroyed in 1950 to create a nuclear arsenal storage facility, but reconstruction began in 1995 after the weapons removal.
