About

This small place of worship was built after 1990 by the Russian-Lipovan Community of Piatra-Neamţ, once very numerous. The hermitage is of the old orthodox rite. And if you get here, pay close attention to your clothing because the monks are demanding in this regard. Men should be dressed in a pair of long pants and a long-sleeved shirt, and for women the headscarf is a must-have accessory.
