The house of the Holy Trinity was called Pskov by Russian chronicles. Pskov was considered the guardian of the Russian land. Pskovici confirmed this title during the defense of Pskov in 1581. Then the Queen of Heaven came to help the defenders and the enemies had to retreat. A pilgrimage trip to Pskov gives an opportunity to visit the Church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin, built to glorify heavenly intercession and perpetuate the defenders of the city. Especially for the temple, the icon “The image of the Virgin of Pskov-Pokrovka” was written. The history of the icon is unusual, full of difficulties and adventures, mysterious disappearances and miraculous appearances. They will be told when visiting the temple.
Courage, courage and strong faith have always helped the Russian people to withstand their enemies.
The nature of the region, solitude, disposed to spiritual quests. The Pskov land was full of monasteries and temples. Some of them were lost, some were restored, and some were not closed at all.
Pskov-Pechersk monastery survived enemy invasions and Soviet persecution. The first mentions date back to 1473. All these years in the monastery burned the fire of senile service. For advice, instruction, consolation come here believers from all over Russia.
Nikandrov Desert is named after Elder Nikander, who sought solitude and built a hut in the forest. For many years he lived more often in fasting and exalting praise to the Lord. Many wonderful healings came through his prayers. After the death of Nikander, a monastery appeared on the site of his hut. Visiting deserts, you will be able to drink water from holy springs, the healing power of which is officially documented.
