The monastery in the name of the Monk Daniel the Stylite was founded no later than 1282 by the holy noble prince Daniel of Moscow on the right bank of the Moscow River, five miles from the Kremlin.
This was the first men's monastery in Moscow. On March 4, 1303, at the age of 42, Prince Daniil died, having shortly before taken monastic vows into the schema, and, according to his will, was buried in the Danilov Monastery. In 1330, the brethren of the Danilov Monastery were transferred to the Kremlin, where a new monastery, Spassky, was built at the Church of the Savior on Bor. The Danilov Monastery itself was desolate for almost two and a half centuries. In its place there was a small church, which became a parish church, and a cemetery.

In 1560, under Tsar Ivan the Terrible, the Danilov Monastery began to be revived, and monastic life was resumed there. In 1561 St. Metropolitan Macarius consecrated the first stone church in the monastery in honor of the Holy Fathers of the Seven Ecumenical Councils (the first church in the history of the Orthodox Church with such a dedication).

In 1591, the monastery played a big role in repelling the attack of the Crimean Khan Kazy-Girey.

In 1606, near the Danilov Monastery there were battles between the troops of Tsar Vasily Shuisky and the rebels led by Bolotnikov, who were defeated. In 1610, the impostor False Dmitry II, who fled from Moscow, set the monastery on fire, but was soon rebuilt and surrounded by a brick wall with seven towers.

In 1652, the relics of the Blessed Virgin Mary were found in the monastery. book Daniel.

Construction of the monastery wall with eight towers in the second floor. The 17th century, under John, gave the monastery the significance of a fortress.

During the Patriotic War of 1812, the French desecrated and robbed the monastery churches and stole a silver frame from the tomb of St. Prince Daniel.

In the 19th centuries. At the monastery there was an almshouse for elderly clergy and widows of the clergy; one of the oldest Moscow cemeteries was located on the territory of the monastery. Many outstanding figures of Russian culture were buried at the Danilov Monastery cemetery: the great Russian writer N.V. Gogol, poet N.M. Yazykov, artist V.G. Perov, musician N.G. Rubinstein and many others.

After the revolution, churches gradually began to be taken away from the monastery. Formally, the monastery was closed in 1918, but monastic life in the monastery continued.

In 1930 [1] the Danilov Monastery was finally closed - the last in Moscow. Until 1932, the remaining part of the brethren served in the Church of the Resurrection of the Word in Danilovskaya Sloboda. The majority of the brethren of the monastery were shot in 1937. The relics of Saint Prince Daniel disappeared without a trace. After the monastery was closed, the churches were devastated and rebuilt, the graves of the most famous people were moved to other cemeteries, and the Danilovsky necropolis was destroyed. A colony for juvenile delinquents and warehouses were set up on the territory of the monastery.

In May 1983, the monastery was the first to be returned to the Russian Orthodox Church. For the celebration of the 1000th anniversary of the Baptism of Rus' in 1988, the monastic monastery was restored. All three churches that existed before the revolution were restored, and two new churches and two chapels were built.

The bell tower with the Church of St., demolished in the 30s down to the first tier. Daniel the Stylite was rebuilt.

The monastery has been restored to its historical appearance in the 17th-19th centuries.
The oldest of the monastery's churches is the Church of the Holy Fathers of the Seven Ecumenical Councils, a complex structure that includes several churches. After restoration, the iconostasis of the Kostroma school of the 17th century was installed in the temple. On the ground floor there is the Church of the Intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Trinity Cathedral is the largest cathedral of the monastery. Built in 1838 according to the design of the architect O. Bove in the style of late Russian classicism. The main altar was consecrated by the holy Metropolitan of Moscow Philaret (Drozdov). After restoration, the interior of the cathedral was recreated in a form close to the original. This cathedral contains miraculous icons: the Mother of God “Three-Handed” and St. John Cassian the Roman. Sunday and holiday services are held in the Trinity Cathedral. On September 4, 1997, a monument to the holy noble prince Daniil of Moscow was opened and consecrated on Tula Square.

On March 17, 1998, a chapel in honor of the Holy Blessed Prince Daniel of Moscow was consecrated on Tula Square. It was recreated according to a new architectural design near the site of the original chapel, which was demolished after the revolution and had a 300-year history.

In 2003-2008 Through the efforts of the brethren of the monastery, with the financial support of the Link of Times Foundation, with the active assistance of the administration and students of Harvard University in the USA, a set of 18 historical bells was returned to the Danilov Monastery, which in the 1930s, on the initiative of a member of the American charitable mission in Moscow, a research fellow at Harvard University To save Thomas Whittemore from being melted down, it was bought by the American industrialist Charles Crane and donated to Harvard University.

Danilov Monastery

History of the Danilov Monastery

Archaeological evidence confirms the existence of wooden churches on the site of the Danilov Monastery from around the 14th century; more specific information has not yet been found. Historical sources call the founder of the monastery the Moscow prince Daniil Alexandrovich, who received his name in honor of the outstanding Christian of the 5th century Daniel the Stylite. The latter was an ardent follower of Simeon the Stylite after witnessing the saint's many years of feat. On his pillar in the vicinity of Constantinople, Daniel stood for about 30 years, showing the world all sorts of miracles of healing the suffering, after which he died peacefully in what was at that time a ripe old age at the age of 80. It is with these church figures: the two Daniels and Simeon that the main objects of worship of the monastery are associated.

History of the stone ensemble

The construction of the Church of the Holy Fathers of the Seven Councils was completed in 1560, after which a year later it was consecrated in the presence of Ivan the Terrible. During the Time of Troubles, during the years of the Bolotnikov uprising, the Danilov complex unwittingly found itself in the thick of events - devastating battles and executions took place next to it. In the 18th century, 20-30 members of the brethren felt more relaxed; no one encroached on the peaceful course of monastic life.

More problems began in 1812, when the sacristy and other valuables were evacuated to Vologda and the Trinity-Sergius Lavra, but were never returned. Otherwise, in the 19th century, the Danilovsky Monastery flourished: although the number of monks remained modest, land plots grew and possessions appeared outside its territory.

Decline and revival of the monastery in the twentieth century

After the revolution, disgraced bishops who did not support Patriarch Tikhon were gathered in the Danilov Monastery. In 1929 it was closed by decision of the NKVD. The bells were taken to the USA, the necropolis was destroyed, the ashes of Gogol, Khomyakov, Yazykov were transferred to the Novodevichy cemetery, the remains of the artist Perov were transferred to the Donskoy Monastery. Many manuscripts and books were transferred to the state archive. A special detention center was opened in the former monastery: children of those repressed at the Butovo training ground were brought here. The mortality rate among the unwanted pupils was enormous, and new, now nameless, burial places appeared near the monastery walls.

In 1983, under Patriarch Pimen, a decision was made at the state level to return the monastery to believers. At first they talked about the Donskoy Monastery, then, after Brezhnev’s death, the authorities chose Danilov. In the 80s, the reconstruction of cathedrals and utility rooms began simultaneously with the construction of the patriarch's residence. Several years ago, the residence was reconstructed, after which the monastery continued to operate as usual: a small part of it is open to parishioners, the rest is under the vigilant guard of the Cossacks.

Temples of the Danilovsky Monastery

The oldest temple of the monastery, the Church of the Holy Fathers, lasted less than 200 years in its original form. In 1730 it was dismantled, and a new one with the same name was built on the base of the nearby 17th-century Church of the Intercession. The architectural experiments did not end there. In 1806, two chapels were built over the Cathedral of the Holy Fathers: the southern one is dedicated to Boris and Gleb, the northern one is dedicated to Daniil of Moscow.

As a result, instead of one patronal feast day, several are celebrated in the Church of the Holy Fathers - each in its own department. The main celebration in honor of the Ecumenical Councils takes place on May 31. From the Church of the Intercession, from the ground floor of the Church of the Seven Cathedrals, on October 14, a religious procession takes place around the building and the nearby Trinity Cathedral. The chapel of the Church of the Intercession is dedicated to the prophet Daniel, whose patronal feast day is celebrated on December 30. The Church of Daniel the Stylite is built in the third tier of the Temple of the Seven Councils; his day is celebrated here on December 24.

The builders of the monastery could not forget about the teacher of Daniel the Stylite - Simeon. The gate church of the 18th century, topped with a 45-meter bell tower, is dedicated to this saint. The ceremonial service takes place here on September 14. The Church of the Nativity of John the Baptist in the basement of the Trinity Cathedral and the Church of Seraphim of Sarov on the site of the chapel in the hospital building were built recently, in the 80s of the twentieth century.

Architectural features of the ensemble

The main distinguishing feature of the architecture of the Danilovsky Monastery is its eclecticism: the complex combines buildings of various styles. Visitors enter the monastery through the ornate Holy Gate of 1681 with the baroque bell tower of Simeon the Stylite - the most striking part of the complex. The strict brick wall with seven towers surrounding the Danilov Monastery appeared earlier than the entrance group - at the beginning of the 17th century.

The building of the Temple of the Seven Cathedrals is unique in the number of churches united in it. The lower floor, the Church of the Intercession, is distinguished by the modesty of low vaults without paintings. The upper part, the actual Church of the Holy Fathers, is designed in the Moscow Baroque style. Trinity Cathedral 1833-1838 - a bright representative of the Moscow Empire style with a portal decorated with six columns and an 8-window drum topped with a dome. Presumably, its architect was Osip Bove, the author of the Manege, Alexander Garden, Bolshoi Theater and many other iconic Moscow buildings. According to other sources, Evgraf Tyurin, also a very famous architect who created the Krutitsky barracks and the Yelokhovsky Cathedral, took part in the development of the project. Since the 19th century, only the outer shell has been preserved; after it fell into the hands of the NKVD, the building was completely rebuilt inside. Upon the return of the monastery to the church, the interior was restored according to surviving records and illustrations.

Residence of the Patriarch

In the western part of the monastery complex there is a specially protected object - the Synodal residence of the patriarch. The two-story building was built according to the design of Yuri Rabaev, one of the authors of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier near the Kremlin walls. As a result of his efforts, a classic regional party committee was created with elements of church architecture - tent towers and mosaics depicting the Savior. On the second floor of the residence there is the house church of All Saints. Here the naming of bishops is carried out before the new Orthodox hierarch is consecrated in the Cathedral of Christ the Savior. In 2011, the Synodal Residence was completely renovated, explaining this need by imperfect construction technologies of 25 years ago.

Shrines of the monastery

The burial place of the founding prince was forgotten, but in 1652 the relics were found and buried in the Church of the Ecumenical Councils. In 1932, after the closure of both the monastery and the churches located next to it, Daniel’s remains disappeared. In the 90s, particles of the relics, preserved through the efforts of the surviving hierarchs in the country and abroad, were returned to the Danilov Monastery. The reliquary returned to the cathedral under the northern arch; the ark, which came from America, is now kept in the Trinity Cathedral. Two more icons with relics - on the lectern and between the iconostasis. The discovery of the relics is celebrated in the chapel of the Church of the Seven Cathedrals on September 12. Every year on September 17th the day of death of the saint is remembered.

The Church of the Intercession contains a shrine with the relics of St. George, who was exiled to Kazakhstan after the revolution and died in 1932 on the way from exile. The Trinity Cathedral contains a fragment of the remains of Alexander Nevsky, and the Church of Prince Daniel in the Cathedral of the Holy Fathers contains a particle of the relics of Nicholas the Wonderworker. Here you can also see the ark of Spyridon of Trimifuntsky with his shoe.

Monastic production

Employees of art restoration workshops paint churches, create icons, jewelry for the Orthodox Church, icon cases and arks made of wood. The Danilov Monastery has its own workshop for the production of bells with master classes and training for bell ringers. It produces new bells and reconstructs old ones; specialists participate in the design of belfries, calculating the sound of instruments, and conduct examinations.

The history of the original Danilov bells is dramatic: in the 30s, the originals were miraculously taken to the USA and stored at Harvard University. In 2007, they were exchanged for exact copies, and Vekselberg became the delivery sponsor. Thanks to a successful deal, since 2010 the monastery hosts a festival of Russian bells on the last Sunday of September.

Rules of conduct in the monastery

Since the Danilov Monastery is active, and also for men, it has its own restrictions on visiting. Women come exclusively in skirts and put on a headscarf when entering the territory; men take off their hats when entering the temple. During worship, women are recommended to stand on the right, men on the left. Women are not allowed to enter the temple with painted lips: they are expected to kiss the cross. The first to receive communion are the monks, then the children, the men, and finally the women.

Cossack guards walk throughout the territory, keeping order. Taking photographs in the monastery is prohibited, especially of the monks, otherwise the Cossacks will intervene.
