Kazansky Bogoroditsky Monastery, Eastern Orthodox monastery in Kazan, Russia
The Cathedral of Our Lady of Kazan within the monastery complex features classical architectural elements and contains multiple worship spaces across two floors.
Established in 1579 after a girl named Matrona discovered an underground icon, the monastery became a significant religious center during Ivan the Terrible's reign.
The monastery houses religious art collections and maintains regular Orthodox services, contributing to the preservation of Russian Orthodox traditions in Tatarstan.
Located at 5 Bolshaya Krasnaya Street in central Kazan, the monastery welcomes visitors daily and provides guided tours through its architectural complex.
The monastery displays the Vatican Kazan Icon, gifted by Pope John Paul II in 2005, representing an exchange between Catholic and Orthodox Christian denominations.
