The holy source of the Icon of the Mother of God of Kazan (Sennitsa) is one of the Orthodox places marked for the location of “Sennitsa”. Now the Holy Kazan spring can be found at a distance of about 400 m south of the Church of the Ascension of the Lord, on the opposite side of the Bar Pond, in Sennitsky Park. Near the chapel, the platform, which stands out in a pond about three meters, equipped with a staircase for descent into the water, is used as an open font.

The chapel of the Holy Spring is small (about two meters by one and a half) log, covered with a gable roof, with a cross on a small cupola. Before the trip, it is useful to clarify the state of the access road and the current access mode.
