* The Holy Dormition Pskov-Pechersk Monastery is one of the most beautiful monasteries with a history of more than 550 years, its shape outside the fortress walls is shaped like a bowl or an inverted bell. In this monastery, 9 people are canonized.
The monastery has never been closed and worship services in it have not stopped. This is an unusual fortification with observation decks, the views from which are simply unforgettable.
Nowadays, the monastery became popular after the publication of a book about the monastery, The Unholy Saints, written by Archimandrite Tikhon Shevkunov. From 1920 to 1940, the Pechora Mountains belonged to Estonia. There is a Lutheran church in the city with a magnificent organ, where magnificent organ concerts take place.
- And the name of the city of Pechora comes from the caves located inside the monastery (this is the monastery cemetery where about 14 thousand people are buried).
