Not far from the Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery is the Savvinsky Skete which is located on the very area where legend has it St Sabbas secluded himself from the outside world in a cave. The pretty and ornate St Sabbas of Storozhev’s Church at the Skete was built in 1862.

Outside the Skete is the wooden Chapel over a Holy-Water Spring.
