The unique landmark New Jerusalem is a recreation of biblical Jerusalem. It is located on Mikhievskaya Mountain in the village of Sukharevo, 30 kilometers from the city of Valuiki.
The history of this holy place began in 2001 with the installation of a votive cross. Currently, eight crosses are installed on the hills, and during church holidays, a solemn procession takes place here. On an area of 6163 square meters, there is an oak cross of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, the Stone of Anointing, the Edicule of the Holy Sepulchre, the bell tower of the Church of St. John the Baptist, and the chapel of the icon of the Mother of God "The Sovereign," which already serve the parishioners. Construction of a brotherhood building for the future men's monastery is ongoing.
The construction of the temple complex of the Resurrection of Christ began in 2003 as an analogue of the holy city. The complex includes the oak cross of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, the Church of John the Baptist with a bell tower, the chapel of the icon of the Mother of God "The Sovereign," the chapel of Saint Mary Magdalene, the Edicule of the Holy Sepulchre, and the Stone of Anointing, which cracked on its own, similar to the biblical one, and exudes myrrh. There is also a local Golgotha and the holy baptismal font of the Apostle John the Theologian. The New Jerusalem temple complex in Valuiki is surrounded by a log fence with sharpened stakes, and the entrance is adorned with the Holy Entrance Gates. The buildings already serve the parishioners, and the construction of the brotherhood building for the future men's monastery continues.
