Epiphany Monastery, Orthodox monastery in Kitay-gorod, Moscow, Russia
The Epiphany Monastery features white stone walls, three portals measuring five meters in height, and a bell tower near the cathedral.
Founded in the late 13th century by Prince Daniel Alexandrovich, son of Alexander Nevsky, this monastery became the second oldest religious institution in Moscow.
The monastery housed the Slavic-Greek-Latin Academy in 1685, making it a principal center for education in medieval Moscow.
