Last edits concerning modern times[edit]

The hidden passage did not tell about active churches in the monasteries, but about its transfer to ROC. There are many sources, that confirm the facts, stated in the passage including the facts about the Church of Theotokos of Tikhvin. http://www.ortho-rus.ru/cgi-bin/or_file.cgi?5_1581

Here is the official Orthodox Source:

"В 1990 г. монастырь был передан в ведение Министерства культуры РСФСР и затем — православной общине неслышащих. Первый молебен внутри монастыря состоялся на Дмитриевскую родительскую субботу в ноябре 1994 г." http://www.tserkov.info/numbers/history/?ID=1375

I can not say exactly about the difference between Staroe Simonovo and Simonov Monastery (maybe it is the same object), but the sources (including official) say, that the monastery was reestablished and transfered to ROC. Ans-mo (talk) 06:28, 15 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Actually there are two Simonov monasteries standing close to each other:

"Первоначально монастырь был устроен там, где теперь стоит церковь Рождества Богородицы. Но спустя девять лет в ста — ста пятидесяти саженях севернее, на более удобной, просторной площадке началось строительство нового монастыря. И затем довольно долго Старый Симонов монастырь существовал вблизи нового."

So, both Old Simonov monastery and New Simonov monastery could be considered in the context of one historical place.Ans-mo (talk) 13:35, 15 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I will write about Staroye Simonovo sooner or later. If you visit the site you will see that the two sites are as distinct as the Berestovo Church is from the Pechersk Lavra. --Ghirla^-трёп- 19:00, 18 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In my opinion, both Old and New Simonovo belong (and widely considered in the sources as belonging) to one context and bear the same name. So they both should be naturally mentioned in the article (even in case of creating other article).Ans-mo (talk) 05:57, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
