A functioning Greek-Catholic monastery of the Order of St. Basil the Great. In the XIIIth c. near the village of Pohonia, Tysmenytsia raion, King Danylo’s voivode Roman defeated a Tatar group. Fulfilling the promise given before the battle, he built a church there. In 1950 the church was burnt. A considerable part of the monastery church’ property was transferred to the parish church of the village of Pshenychnyky near Pohonia.
In 1991 the monastery was restored. Over the last decade a chapel has been built on the wonder-working spring, a church, where several tens of copies of wonder-working icons from all over the world have been collected, the monastery cemetery has been restored.
The Monastery possesses a wonder-working icon of the Mother of God, painted by an unknown author before 1650 at the latest.
