Sergiev Posad Day Trip from Moscow Including Troitse-Sergiev Monastery

Visit Sergiev Posad and the walled fortress of Troitse-Sergiev Monastery, one of RussiaŒÍs most beautiful, where pilgrims have journeyed since the 14th century. Travel by coach with an informative guide and explore the historical center of the Russian Orthodox Church on foot. Inside the massive walls, youŒÍll gaze in awe at the breath-taking beauty of your surroundings, including the blue-and-gold onion-top domes of the famous Cathedral of the Assumption.

Upon meeting your guide and tour group in Moscow at 9am, hop aboard your comfortable coach for an approximate one-hour drive to Sergiev Posad (also known as Zagorsk). Along the way, listen to commentary from your knowledgeable guide about the significance of the small town, established as a monastery around 1340 and re-opened as a museum after World War II.

When you arrive, walk through the gates of the walled Troitse-Sergiev Monastery and learn about the important role the site played in Russian history. Founded by St Sergius, it was renowned as one of RussiaŒÍs greatest monasteries by the 15th century, but wasnŒÍt established as a town until 1742.

Marvel at the beautiful Russian Orthodox design of Trinity Monastery of St Sergius (Trinity Cathedral) as you visit Sergiev PosadŒÍs many churches and chapels Œ_ including the Refectory Church of St Sergius, Chapel-at-the-Well and Church of the Descent of the Holy Spirit. Admire the stunning, whitewashed walls of the Cathedral of the Assumption with its gold, star-studded blue domes for which it is famous.

As you walk around, donŒÍt be surprised to see bearded Orthodox priests in prayer and faithful pilgrims lighting candles in homage to their patron saint, St Sergius. Although the monastery of Sergiev Posad is centuries old, this center of spirituality still thrives in present day Russia, including a seminary located inside the complex.

Throughout the day, your guide will ensure breaks for resting up with food or drink, and can point out one of the many cafes in Sergiev Posad for purchasing lunch. After your tour, return by coach to nearby Moscow around 4pm.
