Kazan Icon of the Mother of God

Moscow, Russia (1701) 

 

In 1689, hymns had been sung at the Ascension  Monastery in Moscow and someone forgot to  extinguish the candle before leaving the church. The  candle fell, and the flames burned the church but the  Kazan Icon did not suffer any damage. In a fire in the  Kremlin on June 19, 1701, the Palace and Ascension  Monastery were consumed by flames. During that fire, the daughter of the deceased prince, entered his tomb and prayed before the Kazan Icon. The Icon remained behind. In the course of an inventory taken to see whether everything had been removed from  the church, they found the Kazan Icon. No one knew how it got there, as no one had taken it from the church. It later miraculously returned to its original spot.
