The Svyato-Troitsky Markov Monastery is one of two modern-day monasteries in Vitebsk. The second, for females, is Svyato-Dukhov Monastery. Markov Monastery was founded in the 14th–15th century. A legend indicates that a certain Mark found a place to stay alone and built a chapel there. Afterwards he was joined by like-minded persons, who formed the monastery. The monastery existed until 1576, when it was abolished.
