Nilo-Stolobenskaya Desert is a monastery on Stolobny Island on Lake Seliger. This monastery arose on the site of the feat of the Monk Nile, Stolobensky miracle worker..Nilova desert gave the world not only architectural masterpieces and spiritual treasures, but also significant scientific achievements..In 1528 the hermit Nil Stolobensky settled on the island of Lake Seliger. Prior to that, for thirteen years he lived in a dense forest on the banks of the Seremkhi River, but there he could not hide from human fame. In the first year of life on the island, he digs up a small cave in the mountain, where he spends the winter. In 1529 he built a hut and a chapel on the island. On December 7, 1554, the Monk Neil died, in 1560 a chapel was erected over his grave..The most intensive construction was carried out in the monastery in the XVIII century. The works were supervised by the contractor Foma Pavlov, a peasant of the sub-monastic suburb of the Trinity Selijarovsky monastery, a highly-gifted master. More than ten years, he has worked in Nil's desert..At the beginning of the 20th century, the Nilova Pustyn was the second most visited pilgrimage site in the world after the Holy Sepulcher. However, after the Bolsheviks came to power in Russia in 1917, her life quickly began to decline. On February 25, 1919, the cancer with the relics of Rev. Nil Stolobensky was blasphemously uncovered. And later his relics were removed from the monastery and placed in the temple of the city of Ostashkov, which houses the exhibition of the local history museum. The Nilo-Stolobensky monastery was plundered, the new rulers seized more than 33 pounds of silver, two pounds of valuables from the monastery..In 2003, the relics of St. Nectarius (Telyashin) were acquired. It happened during the excavations in the basement of the Epiphany Cathedral, where relics are now stored..By the beginning of the 20th century, the Nilova Hermitage represented a grandiose complex, the dominant structures of which were the Epiphany Cathedral, the bishops' cells, as well as a long granite embankment with the Bishops and Svetlitskaya towers. The monastery lost its early secluded scenic appearance and began to resemble the St. Petersburg city square. In the formation of this image of the desert, the leading role belonged not so much to the classical central cathedral as to the high granite embankment. Despite the difference in functional, chronological, stylistic features, all buildings and structures of the Nilova Hermitage represented a single and harmonious architectural complex, which is now a unique world-class architectural and landscape monument.
In the necropolis of Casone, in Baratti-Populonia, the famous tomb shrine called Bronzetto of the Offerente of the second half of the sixth century BC, indicative expression of the power of the Polis. In 1957, during the search for iron waste, this one came to light aedicule-shaped tomb with a double-sloping roof. This grave was more fortunate than others: it was not crushed by the weight of the iron slag. The door was closed by plates. The tomb is from the sixth century. B.C. On the four corners of the chamber were four figures. The fragments are in the Florence museum. The room was supposed to have two beds. Around the tomb are some sarcophagi. The newsstand was violated by the Etruscans themselves in the third century. B.C. They broke into the sepulcher, took away the objects, transported the skeletons to the sarcophagi next door. The looters lost some objects, including the bronze statuette of a bidder: it is a fifth century statuette. B.C. depicting a man with a plate in his hand who offers. Hence the name given to the tomb.
La Sala Capitular y el Sepulcro de San Pedro de Osma de la Catedral de El Burgo de Osma, es lo único que queda en pie de la antigua catedral románica.

The street of tombs in Pompeii
“The life given us, by nature is short; but the memory of a well-spent life is eternal.” Marcus Tullius Cicero
An ancient and tragic time capsule.
The street of the tombs was excavated in the mid 1800's. The Necropolis was always built on the outskirts of Roman towns and rich and poor were buried side by side though sepulchers usually marked the graves of the wealthy citizens.

View of the New Jerusalem Monastery from the wall.
The New Jerusalem Monastery is one of the most famous and revered monasteries of the central part of Russia, the main feature of which is that the Resurrection Cathedral located here was built in the image and likeness of the Church of the Holy Sepulcher on Calvary in Jerusalem, although the outer monasteries are completely different from each other.
In the Resurrection Cathedral, as in the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem, there are three main shrines of Christians:
Golgotha is a small rock where Christ was crucified (in Greek the word "Golgotha" means a frontal place)
Cuvuclia - a small chapel with the Holy Sepulcher, the burial place of Christ
Temple of the Resurrection of the Savior, the place of the life-giving resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Golgotha, the place of the crucifixion of Christ, is located on the second tier of the temple; a staircase to the right of the main entrance leads to it. In a small room, a cross was installed, made in Jerusalem and the same size as the Jerusalem Cross of God. Also here is a stone with a crack imitating a rock that broke at the time of the Savior’s death, when the blood of Christ was shed on it.
On the west side, a rotunda was attached to the temple with a huge two-tier dome, in the center of which was built a cavern, that is, a chapel with the Holy Sepulcher. Here is a bed on which the body of Christ was placed in a cave on the side of Mount Calvary.
In the temple next to the entrance is the Stone of Anointing, to which the Savior’s body was transferred, when it was removed from the cross, here he was anointed with peace (fragrant oil) and prepared for burial.
In the New Jerusalem Monastery, as in Jerusalem, the entrance to the temple is located on the south side. In the eastern part is the underground church of Saints Constantine and Helena, located at a depth of six meters. The legend has been preserved that it was at such a depth that Queen Helen found the Life-giving Cross. The Israeli temple of Constantine and Helen carved into the rock.
The New Jerusalem Monastery in Istra is a piece of Palestine in Russia. The New Jerusalem Monastery is also known by a different name - the Resurrection New Jerusalem Monastery. The male Orthodox convent was founded in 1656 near the city of Istra in the Moscow region. By her appearance she is obliged to Patriarch Nikon, who wished to break the residence of the patriarchs in this place. Nikon himself repeatedly stayed here for the night. With the construction of a new monastery, the patriarch wanted to build the center of the Orthodox world in Moscow. In this case, it was planned that the grand structure would topographically transmit the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, located in Jerusalem..
The Resurrection New Jerusalem Monastery is a historically stavropegic male monastery of the Russian Orthodox Church in the city of Istra, Moscow region.
The monastery was founded in 1656 by Patriarch Nikon, according to which the complex of holy places of Palestine was to be recreated near Moscow.
In 1941, during the Great Patriotic War, miners of the German fascist SS division "Reich" blew up the Resurrection Cathedral. Many architectural monuments were destroyed.
The restoration of the monastery, which is the only successful attempt to recreate the image of the Holy Land, was completed at the end of 2016.
In the Resurrection Cathedral, as in the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem, there are three main shrines of Christians:

The architecture of the New Jerusalem Monastery in the city of Istra, Moscow Region.
The New Jerusalem Monastery was founded in 1656 in the Moscow Region by Patriarch Nikon. According to his plan, the monastery was to become the center of the Orthodox world. The topography, toponymy, church buildings of the monastery and the surrounding territory, stretching for several tens of kilometers, created the image of the Holy Land and reproduced the main Christian shrines of Palestine. On a hill located in the center of this territory, called Zion, a monastery was founded - a kind of temple city. Some buildings of the monastery complex repeat the outlines of the constructions of the Holy Land, and the main cathedral of the monastery, consecrated in 1685, was built in the likeness of the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem. The cathedral reproduces the sacred images of Mount Calvary, the cave of the Holy Sepulcher, the three-day burial place and the Life-Giving Resurrection of the Savior. The towers also have symbolic names: Entrance Jerusalem, Gethsemane, etc. Across the land of Russian Palestine flows the fast winding Istra River, known as Jordan; stream flowing around the monastery hill - Kedronsky stream.
New Jerusalem Monastery in a frame of autumn nature..In the middle of the 17th century, Patriarch Nikon decided that Russia should have its own Jerusalem and, having bought the land around the large village of Voskresensky (now the Moscow city of Istra), founded a monastery in 1656..Already in 1658, the main temple of the monastery was laid - the magnificent Resurrection Cathedral, whose project was created in the image and likeness of the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem. A monastery of Patriarch Nikon is being built on the banks of the Jordan..A few years later, Patriarch Nikon fell into disgrace, and the government ceased to support the monastery. In the following centuries, it experienced different times: some kings tried to reduce funding, while others, on the contrary, pledged a lot of money. By the beginning of the 20th century, the monastery was one of the richest in Russia..During the Great Patriotic War in 1941, the Germans blew up the monastery, after the war it was almost completely rebuilt. Full restoration completed in 2016

The Tella dolmen is an important funerary symbol belonging to the Neolithic Age, which can be found to the left of the access road to Tella.
A signposted path will take us to a meadow where this megalithic sepulcher is erected, made up of a roof slab and six other vertical ones that form a simple rectangular chamber, with an opening facing southeast and a small slab as an entrance. Located 750 meters from the town and at an altitude of 1250 meters, the dolmen was used a few years ago to store farm implements, until archaeological excavations were carried out in the 50s and 70s that resulted in the discovery of decomposed bones and a bone punch.
El dolmen de Tella es un importante símbolo funerario perteneciente al neolítico, que se encuentra a la izquierda de la carretera de acceso a Tella.
Un sendero señalizado nos llevará a una pradera donde se erige este sepulcro megalítico compuesto por una losa de cubierta y otras seis verticales que forman una cámara simple rectangular, con abertura orientada al sureste y una pequeña losa a modo de entrada. Situado a 750 metros del pueblo y a una altitud de 1250 metros, el dolmen se utilizaba hace unos años para guardar los aperos de labranza, hasta que se realizaron excavaciones arqueológicas en los años 50 y 70 que dieron como resultado el descubrimiento de huesos descompuestos y un punzón de hueso.

Basilica of the Holy Sepulchre
(Bologna)
Una delle chiese nell'ambito del complesso delle "sette chiese" (Basilica di S.Stafano).
Fu costruita nel V secolo dal vescovo Petronio come battistero o simulacro del Santo Sepolcro costantiniano di Gerusalemme sul luogo in cui sorgeva la sorgente del tempio pagano di Iside e fu scelto dallo stesso vescovo come suo luogo di sepoltura. Fu interamente ricostruita agli inizi dell'XI secolo dai monaci benedettini dopo che venne pesantemente danneggiata durante le devastanti invasioni ungare del X secolo. La ricostruzione avvenne su modello della Basilica del Santo Sepolcro a Gerusalemme ad opera di Costantino IX Monomaco.
One of the churches in the complex of the "seven churches" (Basilica di S. Stafano).
It was built in the 5th century by Bishop Petronius as a baptistery or simulacrum of the Constantinian Holy Sepulcher of Jerusalem on the site of the spring of the pagan temple of Isis and was chosen by the bishop himself as his burial place. It was entirely rebuilt in the early 11th century by Benedictine monks after it was heavily damaged during the devastating Hungarian invasions of the 10th century. The reconstruction took place on the model of the Basilica of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem by Constantine IX Monomachus.
Construida en el s. XI, pero sufre reformas posteriores. Muros enfoscados y encalados dejando al descubierto los sillares graníticos de la fachada y los que enmarcan puertas, ventanas y esquinas. Cubierta a dos aguas con tejado de teja. Alero decorado con canecillos, que presentan formas zoomorfas. En su interior tiene retablos con imágenes y una columna-sepulcro de reliquias de fines del s. IX- principios del s. X.. Fue construida por mandato del obispo Sisnando y perteneció al monasterio de San Sebastián del Pico Sacro.
Built in the s. XI, but undergoes subsequent reforms. Rendered and whitewashed walls revealing the granite ashlars of the façade and those that frame doors, windows and corners. Gable roof with tile roof. Eave decorated with corbels, which have zoomorphic shapes. Inside it has altarpieces with images and a column-sepulcher of relics from the end of the s. IX- beginning of the s. X. It was built by order of Bishop Sisnando and belonged to the monastery of San Sebastián del Pico Sacro.
Hi... I want to give everyone an update... I still struggle with chronic pain on a daily basis.

...is a church in the Christian Quarter of the old city of Jerusalem.
According to tradition from the fourth century, it contains the two holiest places in Christianity: the place where Jesus was crucified, in a place known as Golgotha or Golgotha, and the empty tomb of Jesus where he was buried and is resurrected.
The tomb is surrounded by a 19th century shrine called the Aedicula.

Steve Jablonsky - The Fight Will Be Your Own
.
.
Al sorger del sole
.
E’ quasi l’alba,
l’ombra densa ancor t’avvolge.
Sei li da sola in compagnia
d’una vecchia lanterna
che fioca illumina quella
spoglia e triste stanza.
Rimani intontita, perplessa e
nella solitudine cerchi qualcuno.
Speranzosa ti affacci
ma ad un tratto
il vuoto attanaglia la tua mente
cominci a comprendere
piangi invano
mentre il chiaror delle prime luci
schiariscono i tuoi boccoli
ed illuminano i tuoi occhi tristi.
Chi parlava con te t’ingannava
oramai è lontano.
Come una colomba
è volato via, là,
nell’infinito si è perso,
verso un mondo diverso.
Rimasti in te
sono quei luoghi incantati
e l'ore dei vostri incontri
che ti videro felice
Adesso, quelle ore son deserte,
interminabili i minuti
scandiscono assordanti silenzi
luoghi per te divenuti un sepolcro
a cui farai la guardia mentre
al sorgere del sole
tutto tornerà a risplendere.
Ma il tuo cuore rimarrà cupo
per sempre....come la morte.
……………………Luigi Mirto
.
.
At sunrise of sun
.
It's almost dawn
the dense shadow still envelops you.
You are there alone in company
of an old lantern
how dimly it illuminates that one
bare and sad room.
You stay groggy, perplexed and
in solitude you look for someone.
Hopeful you look out
but suddenly
emptiness grips the mind
you begin to understand
you cry in vain
while the flare of the first lights
lighten your curls
and light up your sad eyes.
Whoever spoke to you deceived you
now he is far away.
Like a dove
flew away, there,
he got lost in infinity,
to a different world.
Stay in you
are those enchanted places
and the times of your meetings
who saw you happy
Now, those hours are deserted,
endless minutes
mark deafening silences
places for you that have become a sepulcher
which you will be guarding while
at sunrise of sun
everything will shine again.
But your heart will remain gloomy
forever....like death.
…………………… Luigi Mirto

Questa immagine è tratta da un reportage che sto preparando e che riguarderà gli antichi mestieri Siciliani, mestieri che molti non vengono più esercitati o svolti da pochissime persone. Lavoro in continua evoluzione che sto effettuando nella ricerca di particolari volti che esprimano particolari sensazioni, scene di particolare enfasi ambientale, espressioni e sentimenti profondi trasmessi attraverso semplici sguardi, di particolari posture del corpo o anche dai semplici abiti e decorazioni fisiche. Questa immagine è postata in anteprima, in esclusiva.
.
In seguito, tali immagini verranno raccolte in un “Manuale Artistico Tecnico Fotografico” nella quale saranno descritte le particolari tecniche di ripresa, i materiali impiegati, l’attrezzatura fotografica, i luoghi e le condizioni sceniche ambientali.

Work in continuous evolution that I am doing in the search for particular faces that express particular sensations, scenes of particular environmental emphasis, expressions and deep feelings transmitted through simple looks, particular postures of the body or even simple clothes and physical decorations. This image is posted in preview, exclusively.

The Most Intimate Pietà.
The character standing holding Christ - Nicodemus, one of the men who removed Jesus' body from the cross. Michelangelo represents himself. Nicodemo's face, marked by a deep feeling, is a self-portrait of the old master.
One of Michelangelo's 4 Pietàs.
• Pietà (1499) / flic.kr/p/7E2PdL
• Pietà Palestrina (dubious attribution, 1550) / flic.kr/p/SiB7vq
• Pietà Bandini or Pietà of Florence (c.1547-1550) / flic.kr/p/RfKKo5
• Pietà Rondanini (1552–64) / flic.kr/p/StQHRu
The museum's best-known piece, Michelangelo's La Pietà Bandini, a statue he sculpted when he was almost 80 years old for his own sepulcher. Vasari recorded in his Life of the Artists that, dissatisfied with the quality of the marble and with his own work, Michelangelo broke the incomplete sculpture, destroying the left arm and leg of the figure of Christ. A Michelangelo student restored his arm and completed the figure later.

Todos los documentos de los siglos IX, X y XI asignan al lugar el nombre de Arcis Marmoricis. Por encontrarse en él el sepulcro del Santo se utilizaba a veces el genérico en latín de Locus Sanctus (Lugar Santo) y Locus Sancti Iacobi (Lugar de Santiago).
Una de las interpretaciones, incierta, es la de que Compostela derive de la expresión latina campus stellae, que significa "campo de la estrella", por la estrella que, según el milagro, se le apareció a Teodomiro indicándole este lugar.
El Cronicón Iriense (XI-XII) lo deriva del latín compositum tellus, "tierra compuesta o hermosa". Esta explicación debió mantenerse en vigor entre los eruditos porque en la Crónica de Sampiro, escrita en 1150, se dice "Compostella, id est bene composita" y también se le da la misma explicación en la Crónica Najarense hacia el año 1160. Esta interpretación se abandonó posteriormente y fue retomada en 1953 por Ricardo García Villoslada en su obra Historia de la Iglesia Católica.
Pierre David retomará la línea de las crónicas del siglo XII y dirá que Compostella viene del latín composita, participio pasivo femenino del verbo componere en la acepción de "arreglada", "dispuesta" y "adornada". Portela Pazos acepta esta explicación y sitúa la aparición del topónimo en la primera mitad del siglo XI cuando, tras la destrucción de la ciudad por Almanzor, hubo de ser reconstruida y fortificada.6 Esta construcción ordenada derivada del latín compos(i)tum también podría haberse referido originariamente a una construcción funeraria.

All documents from the 9th, 10th and 11th centuries give the place the name of Arcis Marmoricis. Because the Holy Sepulcher was found there, the Latin generic of Locus Sanctus (Holy Place) and Locus Sancti Iacobi (Place of Santiago) was sometimes used.
One of the interpretations, uncertain, is that Compostela derives from the Latin expression campus stellae, which means "field of the star", for the star that, according to the miracle, appeared to Teodomiro indicating this place.
The Cronicón Iriense (XI-XII) derives from the Latin compositum tellus, "composed or beautiful land". This explanation should have remained in force among the scholars because in the Chronicle of Sampiro, written in 1150, it is said "Compostella, id est bene composita" and the same explanation is also given in the Najarense Chronicle around the year 1160. This interpretation is later abandoned and was taken up in 1953 by Ricardo García Villoslada in his work History of the Catholic Church.
Pierre David will return to the line of the chronicles of the 12th century and will say that Compostella comes from the Latin composita, a feminine passive participle of the verb to compose in the sense of "arranged", "arranged" and "adorned". Portela Pazos accepts this explanation and places the appearance of the place name in the first half of the 11th century when, after the destruction of the city by Almanzor, it had to be rebuilt and fortified.6 This ordered construction derived from the Latin compos (i) tum also It could have originally referred to a funeral construction.

Hebgen Lake is a lake located in Southwest Montana and is created by Hebgen Dam. It is well known for the 1959 Hebgen Lake earthquake which occurred nearby on August 17, 1959, forming Quake Lake which is located immediately downstream.
Hebgen Lake and the surrounding area offer many recreational activities: camping, fishing, boating, and hiking. Campgrounds include Rainbow Point and Cherry Creek. Rainbow Point is the largest campground on the lake, offering four "loops." Each loop contains approximately 20 campsites. Each campsite can accommodate a full-size camper and one or two vehicles.
Sepulcher Mountain el. 9,642 feet (2,939 m) is a moderate mountain peak in northwest Yellowstone National Park halfway between the summit of Electric Peak and Mammoth Hot Springs. The peak was named Sepulcher by Captain John W. Barlow, U.S. Army in 1871 because of it resemblance to a crypt when viewed from Gardiner, Montana.
The summit of Sepulcher Mountain can be reached by a 7.2 miles (11.6 km) trail from the mouth of Clematis Creek at Mammoth Hot Springs.

Holy Christ of Lepanto
The Holy Christ of Lepanto of the Cathedral of Barcelona is in the chapel of the Holy Sacrament, just above the sepulcher of Saint Olegarius. It has a patina which causes it to darken.
There is a legend that says that Our Lord was present at the battle of Lepanto in 1571, specifically on the ship captained by Juan de Austria, stepbrother of Philip II. This was a decisive battle and victory meant that the Turks would not be able to advance on Europe. They were stopped at the gates of the Christian continent and, consequently, Pope Saint Pius V established the feast day of Our Lady of the Rosary on 7 October.
There is also a legend that says that in mid-battle Our Father dodged a cannon ball and that is why his body is inclined as it is. Other say that the figure was in the ship’s hold and that he moved his body to cover a large hole that would have sunk the lead ship.

Chapel of Santa Eulàlia, Saint Patron of the City of Barcelona. Barcelona Cathedral.
Capilla de Santa Eulalia, Patrona de Barcelona. Catedral de Barcelona.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ENGLISH
One of the most well-known and endearing part of the Cathedral of Barcelona is the crypt of Saint Eulalia. The magnificent Gothic tomb incorporates Romanesque elements from other sources, such as the bases and capitals holding up the structure of the polychromed marble sarcophagus solemnly inaugurated in 1339. The sculptor is known to have come from the region of Pisa.
We know that in 1327 the bishop of Barcelona, Poncio de Gualba, contracted the services of an artist from Pisa to embellish the Cathedral that was being built during the first decades of the 14th century. There is also evidence that Luppo di Francesco was in Barcelona between 1330 and 1340. Additionally, the style of the sarcophagus coincides completely with other works by that artist at the Cathedral in Pisa.
The episodes shown in the reliefs on the sarcophagus narrate the story of the martyrdom of Saint Eulalia after leaving her parents’ home in Sarria at the age of 13, according to tradition. The reliefs also show the discovery and first transfer of the relics of the Saint from the basilica of Santa María del Mar to the Cathedral. Her martyrdom occurred within the context of the ferocious religious persecution decreed by the Roman Emperor Diocletian, and carried out in Hispania in 304 by the prefect Dacian.
The two stories go from left to right and start at the narrowest part at the left. In the first episode, the young woman is talking to her parents and we then see her walking by herself. In the long central section there are three scenes: first is her trial, in which she is condemned by the prefect Dacian; then her martyrdom by whipping and, third, her martyrdom by tearing her flesh with a hook while she was on the cross. The narrow segment on the right represents the death of the Saint on the cross. And on the long rear section are: first, the search for her burial place, the subsequent transfer of her body, carried on the back of clerics and, finally, the pause by the funeral procession so that a cleric could replace the finger that he had recently stolen from the Saint’s right hand, making the body become so heavy that it could not be moved. And on the front of the cover is the scene of the transfer to the current crypt in 1339, depicting the king and four bishops looking in awe at the body of the Saint before it is placed in the sepulcher.
Finally, the sarcophagus is crowned by five images: four angels with candlesticks and, in the center, the image of the Virgin. The crypt has a keystone representing the Virgin, Saint Eulalia and the Christ Child placing a crown on the Saint of Barcelona.
Behind the Gothic sepulcher is the original sepulcher of Saint Eulalia, which was found by the bishop Frodoino in 878 in the cemetery of Santa María del Mar, and a piece of broken marble with the original inscription commemorating her.

The pilgrim is everywhere a stranger unknown to men.

...
C’est sous votre branchage auguste et solitaire,
Que je veux abriter mon sépulcre ignoré,
Et que je veux dormir quand je m’endormirai.
...
(Victor Hugo)
It’s under your august and lonely branch,
That I want to shelter my ignored sepulcher,
And that I want to sleep when I fall asleep.
(Victor Hugo)
This is a small mausoleum in the General Cemetery in Santiago, Chile, that was destroyed after the earthquake in 2010. As you can see the design included, what looks like, a sad face on the interior, that revealed itself after it collapsed.
I assume that either the family is no longer here, doesn't have the money or doesn't care to pay for it to be rebuilt... this is only one of several mausoleums that sustained damage during the "big one" in 2010.
The Cementerio General de Santiago, Chile is one of the largest cemeteries in Latin America with an estimated 2 million burials.
---
The cemetery was established in 1821 after Chile's independence when Bernardo O'Higgins inaugurated the Alameda de las Delicias along the old course of the Mapocho River. O'Higgins set aside more than 85 hectares (210 acres) of land for the foundation of what became a magnificent ground filled with ornate mausoleums surrounded by palm and leaf trees set amidst lush gardens and numerous sculptures, which have been estimated be 237.
The cemetery, which is located northwest of Cerro Blanco, serves as a true urban park for Santiago.

The New Jerusalem Monastery was founded in 1656 in the Moscow region by Patriarch Nikon. According to his plan, the monastery was to become the center of the Orthodox world. Topography, place names, church buildings of the monastery and the surrounding area, stretching for several tens of kilometers, created the image of the Holy Land and reproduced the main Christian shrines of Palestine. On the hill located in the center of this territory, called Zion, a monastery was founded - a kind of city-temple. Some buildings of the monastery complex repeat the outlines of the structures of the Holy Land, and the main cathedral of the monastery, consecrated in 1685, was built in the likeness of the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem. The cathedral reproduces the sacred likenesses of Mount Calvary, the cave of the Holy Sepulcher, the place of the three-day burial and the Life-giving Resurrection of the Savior. The towers also have symbolic names: Entry Jerusalem, Gethsemane, etc. The hills surrounding the monastery were called the Olives, Favorsky, etc., the villages - Preobrazhenskoe, Nazareth, Capernaum. The fast winding river Istra, named Jordan, flows through the land of Russian Palestine; the stream flowing around the monastery hill is the Kidron Stream. Nowadays, a significant part of the territory is occupied by the city of Istra, which until 1930 was called Voskresenskoye.
In 1919 the monastery was closed, on its territory the New Jerusalem museum was opened, the holy places were partly destroyed, partly consigned to oblivion and changed beyond recognition.
Having begun to decay even after it was closed, the monastery suffered greatly during the Great Patriotic War. During the three-week German occupation in 1941, the museum was looted. During the retreat of the Nazi troops, the monastery was blown up, the tower and the bell tower of the monastery were destroyed, and the cathedral was significantly damaged.
Restoration work at the monastery began in 1947; they were carried out especially intensively in the 1960s and 1980s.
In 1994, the process of transferring the buildings of the monastery to the Russian Orthodox Church began. Jul 18, 1994
Full-scale restoration activities began in December 2011. The restoration of the Resurrection Cathedral was completed in 2015.
E sto abbracciato a te
(Pedro Salinas)
Farò della mia anima uno scrigno
per la tua anima,
del mio cuore una dimora
per la tua bellezza,
del mio petto un sepolcro
per le tue pene.
Ti amerò come le praterie amano la primavera,
e vivrò in te la vita di un fiore
sotto i raggi del sole.
Canterò il tuo nome come la valle
canta l’eco delle campane;
ascolterò il linguaggio della tua anima
come la spiaggia ascolta
la storia delle onde.
And I'm hugging you
(Pedro Salinas)
I will make a casket of my soul
for your soul,
a home of my heart
for your beauty,
a sepulcher of my breast
for your pains.
I will love you like the prairies love spring,
and I will live the life of a flower in you
under the rays of the sun.
I will sing your name like the valley
sings the echo of the bells;
I will listen to the language of your soul
as the beach listens
the history of the waves.
