Abstract: |
The Otroch Monastery belongs to the most ancient Tver cloisters. It was evident- ly founded in 1260s. Later, probably in the late 13th century, the first stone temple - the Cathedral of the Assumption was built there. A new stage of building history of the monastery fell on the 2nd half of the 15-16th centuries. The cathedral was rebuilt and some new stone buildings - a refectory, a kitchen and a bell-tower - were erected in that period. Such a large-scale stone building made the monastery one of the most significant cloisters in Ancient Rus'. |
