Kozelshchyna Monastery of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin, Orthodox monastery in Kozelshchyna, Ukraine.
The Kozelshchyna Monastery of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin is an Orthodox monastic complex located in Kozelshchyna village in Poltava Oblast. The site contains several religious buildings arranged around a central cathedral where worship services take place regularly.
The monastery began construction in 1882 and was officially established in 1885. Its main cathedral was repurposed as a theater during the Soviet era before returning to religious use in the 1940s.
The monastery is a place where daily religious services follow Eastern Orthodox traditions and rituals. The nuns shape life within the complex through their presence and their connection to the local community.
The monastery is located in Kozelshchyna village and can be reached by local roads through the Poltava region. Contacting the monastery beforehand allows visitors to learn about the best time to visit and whether guided visits are available.
The monastery was founded as a fulfillment of a vow made after a local girl's recovery through religious intervention. This personal origin gives the site a deep connection to local faith and family memory.
