Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius. Sergiyev Posad
Троице-Сергиева Лавра, в церковной литературе обычно Свято-Троицкая Сергиева Лавра — крупнейший православный мужской ставропигиальный монастырь России, расположенный в центре города Сергиев Посад Московской области, на реке Кончуре. Основан в 1337 году преподобным Сергием Радонежским.
The Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius is the most important Russian monastery and the spiritual centre of the Russian Orthodox Church. The monastery is situated in the town of Sergiyev Posad, about 70 km to the north-east from Moscow. The monastery was founded in 1345 by one of the most venerated Russian saints, Sergius of Radonezh, who built a wooden church in honour of the Holy Trinity on Makovets Hill. Early development of the monastic community is well documented in contemporary lives of Sergius and his disciples.
