Excursion to Novodevichy Convent
Excursion to one of the Moscow’s most attractive monasteries. Novodevichy, or "New Maidens Convent" in English, was founded in a suburb of Moscow in 1524 to commemorate the liberation of Smolensk from the Lithuanians in 1514. The convent is rather like a miniature Kremlin by its architectural style. Many of the city’s monasteries served as retirement homes for royal and noble women, who either chose or were forced to take the veil and remain in the safety of the convents for the rest of their lives. The Tsars and the supreme feudal nobility showed a great interest in the Novodevichy convent, rendering it all possible financial and legal support. The convent has also been a burial place for famous persons in Russian history.
