Photos Associated With St. John of Kronstadt Today


In the basement chapel of the Convent of Saint John of Rila in St. Petersburgh, which was founded by St. John of Kronstadt, there can be found the tomb of St. John of Kronstadt. It is said that his body was hidden years ago for fear the communists may steal his body, and till this day the location of his body is not known.





This is the apartment building of St. John in Kronstadt, which today has been made into a museum. In the courtyard stands a statue in his honor. He lived on the first floor.
