Sokolski Monastery

Address:
Kvartal Voditsi 60, Gabrovo 5300, Bulgaria

The Sokolski Monastery is a Bulgarian Orthodox monastery founded in 1833 and named after its founder Yosif Sokolski. It is located 15 km southwest of Gabrovo on the northern slopes of the Balkan Mountains in the Bulgarka Nature Park and is close to the Sokolovo cave. Originally, a small wooden church was built in 1833 and the frescoes were finished a year later. Hristo Tsokev, a Gabrovo-born artist, donated the church icon, which represents the Virgin Mary and Christ and is considered to be miraculous. In 1862, Father Paul Zograf and his son Nikola from the village of Shipka decorated the church with frescoes. The monastery has a big yard surrounded by residential and utility buildings. In the centre of the yard, in 1865 the master Kolyu Ficheto constructed a big stone fountain with eight taps. The whole monastery was built during the Bulgarian National Revival with the strong support of the people of Gabrovo and the local villages. The monastery played an important role during the April Uprising. In this monastery, the leader Tsanko Dyustabanov formed a group of volunteers for the resistance. In a short period of time during the Russo-Turkish War of 1877-78 the monastery was a hospital. The Sokolski Monastery was declared a historical site in 1973.

Bulgarian monastery - Sokolski monastery

Sokolski Monastery is located on the Balkan mountain near the town of Gabrovo and historical-ethnographic complex Etara. Etara is also called the City of the Masters or the City of Craftsmen.
Before the appearance of the monastery in 1834, a small church was built here. During forty years, new buildings have appeared here. Thus there was the monastery of the Assumption of the Virgin.
In the twilight of the Ottoman Empire at the monastery often stayed Bulgarian partisans who fought against the Turks.
During the Russian-Turkish war, the monastery was used as hospital.
It was originally built as a mens monastery but in 1959 it was turned into a convent.

Соколски манастир Габрово_Sokolki Manastir Gabrovo

Location: The The Assumption Sokolski Monastery is situated in Stara Planina Mountain along the upper river valley of Yantra, 12 km away from Gabrovo and 4 km away from the Etara architectural ethnographic reserve. An eco path connects the monastery with the reserve.

History: In 1833 the famous fighter for church independence Joseph Sokolski came back to his home town Gabrovo and with the help of priest Agapius built a small wooden chapel in front of the nearby cave. A small wooden house was built near the church.
One year later people from the local villages made donations and helped for the construction of the big temple that can be seen today. The consecration of the church was carried out in 1834.
According to another hypothesis, there was an operating monastery at that place during the Medieval that was reconstructed by two monks in the 30s of the 19th century.

Соколски манастир, България / Sokolsky Monastery, Bulgaria

Соколският манастир „Успение Богородично” се намира в местността Соколова пещера, на 15 км югоизточно от Габрово и на 4 км от архитектурно-етнографския комплекс „Етъра”. С „Етъра” го свързва туристическа пътека, която минава през красива местност, а преходът по нея отнема около 2 часа. До манастира води добър асфалтов път от града.

Манастирът е основан от архимандрит Йосиф Соколски. През 1833 г. до входа на близката пещера Сокола той построил малка дървена църква и паянтова жилищна постройка, а през 1834 г. с помощта на хора от близките села на мястото на дървените постройки е издигнат и осветен голям храм. Храмът представлява еднокорабна, едноапсидна, еднокуполна сграда, а стенописите в него са направени по-късно.

През Възраждането в Соколския манастир е основано килийно училище. В годините до Освобождението през 1878 г. светата обител e давала убежище на бореца за свобода Васил Левски и четата на капитан дядо Никола - друг радетел за национално освобождение. През Руско-турската освободителна война (1877-1878 г.) манастирът е превърнат в лазарет за ранените руски войници.

През 1868 г. в манастирския двор известният в цяла България самоук майстор строител Колю Фичето построил кръгообразна каменна чешма с осем чучура, която е запазена и до днес и е една от най-интересните забележителности в манастира. Смята се, че Колю Фичето е построил също и красивата каменна стена и костницата до манастирския храм.

До средата на ХХ в. манастирът е бил мъжки, но през 1959 г. тук се преместили монахините от Габровския девически манастир. Оттогава Соколският манастир е девически. При преместването си монахините донесли ценни икони и документи.
