General information about Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker Source (Avdiivka)

In the register of miraculous sources of the Russian Empire, the Avdiivka source of Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker dates back to 1700.

According to legend, the phenomenon of Nicholas the Wonderworker was observed here many times.

In 1930, the activists of the Union of Atheists covered up this source, but it broke through again. There were several more attempts to destroy it, but the source exists and is still a place of pilgrimage for believers.

The chapel of the Mother of God "Handcuffs of Sinners" was built above the source.
