St. Kazan Convent
The monastery is located in the village of Kolyupanovo. It was established in 1995..At the moment, this monastery is recognized as one of the youngest Orthodox monasteries. But 1995 is not considered the date of the monastery's birth.
There are shrines here: the relics of Blessed Euphrosyne, buried on the territory of the church of the Kazan Mother of God. The spring, located on the territory of the monastery, is listed as a monument of regional importance.
The Holy Spring of the Healer Panteleimon
The named source dates back to 1650.. Even then, it was considered curative. It is located near the estate of the Bobrishchevs-Pushkins. The source was given a second chance not so long ago. Residents of the villageEgnyshevka made a proposal to clear the area around the source. The director of the Author company provided great help (and selflessly). A project was developed, according to which they began to improve the territory.
Scientists are trying to solve the mystery of the healing properties of the spring. Perhaps experts have found a scientific explanation for the healing properties of water: it is extremely crystal clear and saturated with silver and silicon. Thanks to this composition, water really heals, because silver disinfects, and together these trace elements have a beneficial effect on the digestive and cardiovascular systems. In addition, archaeologists conducted excavations near the spring and discovered a real natural treasure – the most valuable blue clay.
