St. Archangel Michael's Women's Monastery in Odessa: photos, reviews

About

In Odessa, the Свято-Архангело-Михайлівський Жіночий Монастир stands as a spiritual beacon, offering a serene escape to visitors and pilgrims alike. With its stunning architecture and history deeply intertwined with граф Михайло Воронцов, who founded it in honor of his patron archangel, the monastery holds a remarkable presence. Although it suffered destruction in 1931, the Свято-Михайлівський собор was lovingly restored during the era of independence, bringing back its former glory.

Adjacent to this sacred site is a growing church dedicated to the Athonite Icon of the Mother of God, further enhancing the spiritual heritage of the area. The grounds feature a diverse array of attractions, including the 'Christian Odessa' museum, a water-blessing chapel, and a chapel dedicated to the "Inexhaustible Chalice" icon. Visitors can enjoy tranquil moments in the gazebo, relax in the teahouse, or browse through the church shop.

An orphan school and a house of mercy once graced this monastery, and today, it continues to contribute to the community with a school for choir conductors and church arts. Recognized not only for its historical and spiritual significance but also for its excellent cuisine, the monastery receives an impressive 4.8 rating on Google. Those who visit often find themselves moved by both the soul-stirring atmosphere and the flavorful dishes that perfectly complement the peaceful setting.

Тихое, уютное место в историческом центре Одессы.

Прекрасное место, единение с Богом и души,но пожилая монахиня к сожалению очень агрессивно настроена и злая в главном храме,так нельзя к людям которые пришли за помощью к Богу со своей болью, нужно меньше злости и проявлять милосердие,а другая монахиня которая была в прошлый раз в малом храме очень душевная и хорошая, добрая 🙏🏻.... Спасибо ей.
