Miracles of Pochayevsky monastery
Pochayevsky Uspensky monastery — the second for the historical church to the status (after Kiev Pechersk Lavra) the orthodox monastery in Ukraine. Majestic and at the same time graceful temples of monastery are built on the high hill. Monks of Kiev Pechersk Lavra who left the monastery founded the Pochayevsky monastery in the 13th century, escaping from mongolo-tatar army. The former Kiev residents in honor of the river of Pochayna in which they, as we know, christened inhabitants of a capital hail called the new haven. The first settlers led a solitary life and therefore no written certificates on that time remained. But up to now the legend of how on the Pochayevsky mountain to two monks and the shepherd Ivan Bosy the image of the Mother of God in a fiery pillar was reached. On the rock where according to legends saw Virgin Mary, her foot imprinted, and from this place the source broke through. Impressed with improbable incident, monks constructed at the foot of the mountain church in honor of the Dormition of the Theotokos. Since then there passed nearly eight hundred years, but still thousands of believers come to Pochayev to be put to the stiffened Virgin's trace.
One more well-known shrine of Pochayevsky monastery — a miracle icon of the Mother of God which as consider a pro-tub, gives recovery. As the proof of it the iconostasis has two couples of crutches left here by suddenly recovered pilgrims. Local guides, they are seminarists, say that the second couple appeared only few years ago.
Among the eminent tourists who in due time visited Pochayev there were Franz Liszt and Honoré de Balzac. The monastery was patronized practically by all Russian tsars and the Ukrainian hetmen. By the way, women in the territory of monastery cannot walk bare-headed and in trousers. But the modern emancipated pilgrims on an entrance if necessary are given long colorful skirts. As souvenirs buy here an icon of the Pochayevsky Virgin on which Virgin Mary is represented in a fiery aura. Also surely carry home and water from a sacred source.
