Chapel of Paisius of Uglich in Malo Bogorodskoye

Фото 1
Near the village, on the left bank of the Yelda River, there is a revered spring known to locals as Paisiev Klyuchik. According to legend, it was cleared and arranged by Pavel Gavrenev, known as Saint Paisius of Uglich. Before the revolution, this place was popular among pilgrims, with believers coming from various towns and villages. Currently, the village has almost disappeared: houses are destroyed, one church is in ruins, and the second, wooden church, has been completely demolished. The cemetery is abandoned, graves have been leveled with the ground, except for one, enclosed by a cross and a fence, where the parents of the Venerable Paisius of Uglich rest.

The Myshkin People's Museum strives to maintain this site. Every year, they update the fencing of the cemetery and the grave of the Venerable's parents, restored one of the walls of the chapel of Paisius, and covered half of the building with a roof. They also tidy up the spring of Paisius and the paths leading to it. Now, a bathing area and a chapel have been built at the holy spring.
