Description:

The Epiphany Monastery was founded in 1636 by D. Malinovsky and L. Drevinsky. Now it is located in the city of Kremenets, in a room that was built by S. Pototsky in 1760.

In the Epiphany Monastery, the first school, hospital and printing house were opened. The current church building combines two architectural styles: Baroque and pseudo-Russian. It has a three-tiered bell tower above the Holy Gate, a church and cells. The construction is one-mef, its facades are decorated with pilasters of the Tuscan order. Cells adjoin the facade of the church. The two risalites form a Kurdoner. One risalite once served as a refectory, and the second was the abbot's chambers.

In 1959 the monastery was closed. In 1990, it was opened as a female. The temple contains the icon of the Mother of God, the icon of St. Barbara with a particle of relics and the icon of St. Panteleimon with a particle of relics, which radiates heat.
