A visit to the Kazan Bogoroditsky Monastery, the history of which is inextricably linked with the acquisition, glorification and veneration in Russia of the miraculous Kazan Icon of the Mother of God.
This icon is one of the most revered in the Russian Church.
They pray to her, they make requests to her.
At the same time, few people ask themselves what path the miraculous icon traveled and where did it come from?
Almost a hundred years ago, in 1932, Kazan lost one of its main sites — the Cathedral of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God.
But now, years later, the cathedral was erected on the site of the miraculous image, "returned" to its historical place, in its former appearance.
And it is difficult to overestimate the spiritual significance of such a recreation.
