History
In 1864, the daughter of Major General E. A. Kopiev, in memory of the Monk Seraphim of Sarov, founded a female community in her estate. [1] Five years later, the community was transformed into a monastery. [one]
The miraculous icon of the Mother of God “The Sign ” was painted in the monastery, painted in 1879 by the nunner Claudia Voiloshnikova. [1] The icon was glorified on May 14, 1885 with the wonderful radiance of the face of the Mother of God depicted on it and the movement of Her eyes, as well as the healing of the sick by prayer before this image. [one]
In 1925 the monastery was closed. [one]
As of 2009, a monastery is located in one of the buildings. [1] A head with a cross is installed above it. [1] In the remaining buildings there is a boarding school for the mentally ill [1] , and in a building with a bell tower, there is a boarding school directorate . The school was in the building of the former hotel for pilgrims. Since 2010, the school has been closed.
On January 30, 2010, the first Divine Liturgy celebrated by the hierarchal bishop in the Ponetaevsky Skete was the first since the closing of the Seraphim-Ponetaevsky monastery. [2]
