Cross exaltation convent

Krestovozhdvizhensky women's monastery is located on the right bank of the Ob River on a high place in the old part of the city of Nizhny Novgorod.

It was founded in 1370 and united three women's monasteries Zachatevskaya, Voskresenskaya and Proskhodenskaya. In 1716 the monastery became known as the Exaltation of the Cross.

At the beginning of the XIX century the monastery was partially burned, so it was given a new place. In 1815 a hospital for poor women was built at the monastery, and in 1838 a school for orphan girls was built.

In 1917 the monastery was closed. There are residential apartments, warehouses, production facilities. In 1995, the revival of the monastery began and by 1999 it was restored.

The monastery is located on Lyadov Square, Omsk Exit 2a. Works every day. You can get there by metro station which is located in 10 minutes walk.
