Troyan Monastery “Holy Mother's Assumption”
Stauropegial Troyan monastery is the third biggest monastery in Bulgaria and the third in significance as well.
According to the monastery’s chronicles, Troyan Monastery was established in the beginning of 17th century by several hermits who also brought with themselves the miracle-working icon of “Holy Virgin Troerouchitsa” (three-handed Holy Mother). The monks won the respect of the local residents who started visiting them for prayer and advice. Subsequently, a church consecrated to the Holy Virgin was built.
Troyan Monastery was also an asylum for rebels during the time of Ottoman Rule.
In 1872, Bulgarian Apostle of Freedom Vassil Levski set up in the monastery a secret revolutionary monks committee which was headed by the Father Superior Macarius.
Four years later, Troyan monastery became a citadel of the 1876 April Uprising. The monk room, where all important revolutionary actions were discussed, has been preserved in its original condition. During the Liberation Russian-Turkish war, Macarius transformed the monastery complex into a field hospital for Russian soldiers.
