From May 1 to May 4, 2025, a delegation of international students from the St. Petersburg Theological Academy traveled to Kazan. The trip, organized by the Foundation for the Support of Christian Culture and Heritage, allowed the participants to get acquainted with the spiritual and historical sights of the capital of Tatarstan.
The program began with a guided tour of Kazan, including the Kazan Kremlin (a UNESCO site) and the Museum of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God. In the evening, the guests attended the gala concert of the choral music festival. The next day, the delegation visited Sviyazhsk with its ancient temples. The trip ended with the Divine Liturgy at the Kazan Cathedral.
The participants are grateful to the Foundation for the Support of Christian Culture and Heritage for organizing a program that allowed for a deeper study of Russia's spiritual heritage.
