    Shards of a bygone luxury from the majestic convent left temple and several buildings. The temple was renovated, the area neat and tidy. But that's left a negative impression from visiting. Went with my wife to the temple, his wife on the head scarf, in a skirt, a neck camera. In my hand off camera. Immediately jumped two grannies and zashipeli that in the temple to take pictures and shoot video is prohibited. And in general we don't belong here. We even thought it was not something to photograph, because it has long been known that the temples were not photographed. Dovydy that no one photograph was not going to not podejstvavali. Had to just walk away, not after seeing the temple inside and not putting candles.

    Public transport nearby, in good weather, it is easy to walk (I spent 30 minutes of Thunderous Tower). The territory is small temple (classic and a bit heavy) surrounded by an earthen rampart, where beautiful rose bushes. Named in honor of the first Abbot, Archimandrite Abraham (one of the first saints of Smolensk, writer and philosopher). Before the gates of the venerable monument, near billboards with pictures of the destruction during the war 1941-45 Gg.

    Hello, how can I write bad about this monastery. I resident of Smolensk, visit this monastery. Very sinful, that doesn't happen often. namolenoe is the place where all the employees are kind and considerate to all. no rudeness and indifference. about what the grandmothers wrote This man, why nagovarivat for people, it's the same sin. Come to Smolensk and visit this monastery. Especially stand at the service carried out by father Oleg and you get emotional tenderness and calmness.

    13 century! Smolensk is rich in ancient temples! The restoration is complete, the upper Cathedral no access, but in the lower pass service.

    The road to God is always difficult, heavy and beautiful. Places where the sky opened closer to man, there can be no beautiful. God cannot be far if we ourselves are not trying It on my own.

    . During the Patriotic War of 1812 Goda Avraamievskii monastery was badly damaged by enemy cores during the bombardment and storming of the city by the French. So far over an altar of the Transfiguration Cathedral window protrudes from the wall nerazorvavsheesja kernel.
