Intercession (Pokrovsky) Monastery (Покровский монастырь) is a Russian Orthodox convent situated in Moscow, in the neighbourhood of Taganka.
The monastery has been known since 1635 and long remained a poor monastic abode outside the city proper, neighbouring a large cemetery for commoners.
[1] Much of the monastery is Neoclassical in design and dates from the early 19th century.
[1] The five-domed katholikon was erected in the mid-1850s to Mikhail Bykovsky's Byzantine Revival designs.
[1] It is dedicated to the Renewal of the Temple of the Resurrection in Jerusalem.
