What travelers say:

After the assassination of the governor of Moscow, Archduke Sergei, by terrorists in 1905, his widow, Elizabeth Feodorovna, established the monastery for charity, but she was brutally killed after the revolution and the monastery was shut down. The monastery is a prominent representation of the new Moscow style of art, and the main church murals are made by Nesterov. Located on the south bank of the Moscow River, you can stroll around with the Restoration Church, the Tretyakov Gallery, etc., a quiet place.
