A very well-maintained and blessed monastery!
Through the efforts of Mother Gabriel, comfort and beauty are brought to the nuns!
I definitely advise you to visit if you are in this city!
Holy Nativity is a convent of the Theotokos. The former Basilian monastery was built in the first half of the 17th century, and since 1843 the monastery has belonged to the Orthodox Church. The black domes of the cathedral with golden stars create the effect of night. Although usually temples dedicated to the Virgin come with blue domes. An interesting interior space of the cathedral, during the reconstruction, the iconostasis was moved from the western part, where the altar used to be, to the eastern one.
We have been visiting Grodno for 20 years, and for the first time we found and visited this monastery. Devotional service, monastic singing, were at the all-night vigil under the name of Sergius.
Unfortunately, the temple was closed, it was not possible to get inside, but it looks very beautiful. In the city center, but away from the hiking trails

A very salty place right in the center of the city. It's cozy and peaceful. I want to come and come to this Temple. God help me.
Everything was clean and well-groomed on the territory, it's nice to see how everything in the Republic of Belarus is in general, I highly recommend visiting
The convent in Grodno looks like a small beautiful town. There are many icons in the church in the old and new style. The temple is large and spacious.
A blissful place!And singing during the service is amazing..Acoustics features
- it is perfectly audible near the walls of the old castle (I work there) and my soul becomes light and joyful!
Outwardly very beautiful, but on a big holiday, on Whitsunday, for some reason it was closed, although there were both a priest and other servants in the courtyard
It is a very beautiful monastery, although there is not much space inside, but it feels warm and cozy, if that's what you can say about the church. It is always decorated on Orthodox holidays, somehow in a special way, there is no such tension as in the cathedral.
She is alien to Belarusians-"Mother Gabriel"-she divides society, she sows turmoil and promotes the "Russian world", does not really belong to faith in God, supports the dictator, calls peaceful protesters sectarians!
