The Holy Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius of Radonezh (1337) is one of the most visited Orthodox places and the largest center of spiritual education and culture in Russia.
This is a truly amazing place, where every stone is imbued with centuries-old history and spiritual power.
At first glance at the majestic domes and golden tops of the churches, their monumentality and beauty take your breath away.
The territory of the Lavra amazes with its scale and thoughtful organization of space. Here you can walk for hours among the ancient burials, enjoying the silence and peace.
Particularly impressive is the Trinity Cathedral, where the relics of St. Sergius of Radonezh are kept - one of the most revered saints in Rus’.
Of particular value is the famous icon “Trinity” by Andrei Rublev, returned to the cathedral. Even being at a distance from the shrine, you can feel the special energy and grace emanating from this ancient image.
The monastery grounds have everything you need for a comfortable stay: a spring with holy water, bookshops with spiritual literature, places for meals.
The staff - novices and monks - greet guests with sincere kindness and willingness to help.
Despite the fact that during the high season there are many tourists, including foreign guests, the atmosphere of the place remains truly spiritual and blissful.
The Lavra is especially beautiful in the morning hours, when the bell ringing spreads over the territory, creating a unique symphony of sounds.
This place can truly be called the spiritual center of Russia, where everyone, regardless of religion, can find something important for themselves: be it historical heritage, architectural splendor or the opportunity to touch eternal values.
This place leaves an indelible mark on the soul and heart, filling the inner world with peace and light.
