A new nunnery has been recently established here. A short walk along the same street may take you to one more monastery called Sretensky Monastery (B. Lubyanka St., 19, the 'Turgenevskaya' Metro station). The Monastery main cathedral (12th century), and several monk cells dated by the 17th-18th centuries are the only structures remained. One more monastery, Zachatyevsky Convent (2nd Zachatyevsky per., 2, the 'Park Kultury' 'Kropotkinskaya' Metro stations) displays the only one remaining Church of Our Saviour Over the Gates. The Church was built in the best traditions of 'Naryshkin Baroque' style.
