Noul Neamț Monastery, Kitskany (Chițcani), Transnistria

Pavilion, Chițcani Monastery

A pavilion in the gardens of Noul Neamț Monastery, an all-male Moldovan Orthodox monastery in Kitskany (Chițcani in Moldovan), 9 kilometres south of Tiraspol. The monastery was founded in 1861, when several monks from the Neamț monastery left and founded Noul-Neamț as a protest when the United Principalities of Romania confiscated monastery estates and forbade the usage of Slavonic language in worship. At the time, Chițcani, like all of Bessarabia, was part of the Russian Empire.
