Raifa Bogoroditsky Monastery send email info@kosmostrip.net
The Virgin Male Monastery of Raifa: Six functioning churches (The Church of the Georgian Virgin Icon, The Trinity Cathedral); the monastery's holy relic is a copy of the Georgian Virgin Icon of the late 17th century. The monastery is located on the shores of Lake Raifa in a picturesque forest, part of the Volga-Kama Preserve, established in 1960. There is a holy spring in the monastery complex.The Raifa Bogoroditsky Monastery is one of the most beautiful sites in Tatarstan. The Monastery was founded in the 16th-17th centuries. The ancient cloister is located on the bank of a beautiful lake and surrounded by virgin forests. Here everyone can feel in amazing unique atmosphere of solitude and quiet reigning here, which is due to the primeval silence and remoteness of the place. Anyone approaching the monastery can contemplate a wonderful harmony of the architectural ensemble, crenellated walls of white stone, the Gate bell-tower looking into the sky, golden crosses on the green and sky-blue temple domes. You can see a living ocean of beautiful flowers different in their color and scent in summer and pure whiteness of snow in winter. An inexpressible grace you cannot experience outside of church descends on everyone entering here with a pure heart and good intentions.
The history of the monastery goes 300 years ago back. It was brutally plundered and then closed in 1928. In 1933 they organized a colony for juvenile delinquents. Later it become a technical school, and the temples and the fraternity building housed workshops, a club, and a dining room.
The holy dwelling regained its function in the beginning of the '90s when its prior archimandrite Vsevolod took it upon himself to restore the monastery for it was in utter desolation for more than half a century. By 1991 some buildings had been almost completely destroyed. 10 years have passed. All the buildings were completely repaired; decoration and restoration works are now under way. The monastery of Raifa regained its shining magnificent once lost. Services are resumed in all temples, prayers are being said , and the soul of these ancient walls once again found its dwelling place.
Much has been done to restore the holy cloister, and much work is still ahead. The fraternity building, a pilgrims inn, and a car park are still to be built. Recently, the monastery received as a gift a 3-storey wooden house of pre-Revolution times to be used as an orphanage after repair works. As you enter the monastery, to the left of the wall you can see a grave-yard where the monks found their place. But after the October Revolution the grave-yard was destroyed. In 1991 the bones of the deceased, were collected and buried in a common grave, and on September 1, 1997 a memorial cross of white stone was erected there. At present the grave-yard serves as a flower garden and slab stones resemble grave fences. On the days of special remembrance of the deceased twice a year the fraternity of the monastery say remembrance prayers in the presence of multitudes of believers.
In the middle of the monastery there is a magnificent Trinity Cathedral built by an architect Malinovski in 1904-10. It is a wonderful example of ancient Russian architecture viewed from a modern perspective. The temple resembles Moscow churches of the XVIIth century. The second biggest cathedral of the monastery was sanctified in the name of the miraculous icon of the Virgin of Georgia which is the main shrine of the Raifa monastery. At present the cathedral is completely restored and the decorative works are being finished. Before it was closed in 1930 the glory of the Raifa Bogoroditsky Monastery was so great and its main shrine, the miraculous icon of the Virgin of Georgia was so revered and loved by people that even the Trinity Cathedral did not have enough room for all the believers and public prayers were held outside right in front of the temple. On the Trinity Day the icon was usually triumphantly moved to Kazan accompanied by a great multitude of believers and church leaders from all over Russia, and on July 31 it was brought back.

Раифский Богородицкий монастырь — крупнейший действующий мужской монастырь Казанской епархии Русской православной церкви. Основан в XVII веке отшельником Филаретом в 27 км к северо-западу от Казани. До пожара 1689 г. обитель оставалась полностью деревянной. Каменный ансамбль начал складываться с рубежа XVII-XVIII вв. В 1690-1717 гг. построены ныне существующие зубчатые стены и башни. Они вытянулись по периметру более чем на полкилометра и образовали живописный монастырский кремль. Комплекс монастыря включает возведенную в камне церковь Свв. Отцев, в Раифе и Синае избиенных (1708 г.); Софийскую церковь над братскими кельями (1739-1827), которая является одной из самых маленьких церквей — в храмовой части могут находиться только 7 человек; Грузинский собор в стиле классицизма (1835-1842 гг.); надвратную колокольню (1889-1903 гг.) — самое высокое сооружение монастыря (около 60 м) и возведенный в 1904-1910 годах Троицкий собор в неорусском стиле. Последними строениями Раифской пустыни являются колокольня с надвратной церковью во имя Архистратига Божия Архангела Михаила, построенная на месте пришедших в ветхость башни с холодной надвратной церковью во имя Святителя Николая. Строительство колокольни было начато в 1889 году. Сейчас замечательно восстановленный архитектурный ансамбль монастыря — один из самых величественных и роскошных в Среднем Поволжье. Особую живописность ему придает уникальное природное окружение: Раифское озеро (длиной около 1,5 км и средней шириной 300 м) и великолепный сосновый лес, объявленный заповедником.
