One of the objects of pilgrimage interest in the «Elabuga» location is the Holy Source of Panteleimon the Healer (Elabuga). Not so long ago, fonts were built here, the paths were paved with stone, several arbors and benches were put up for rest. And although the Holy Key is far from the asphalt road connecting Naberezhnye Chelny and Elabuga, but the folk path to it does not grow.

Back in 1797, Russian enlightener Alexander Radishchev was drinking from the Holy Key. Current conditions of visit and improvement of the territory should be specified immediately before departure.
