In the foreground is the Chapel cover over St Sergius Well (Moscow baroque late 17th century) from which the devout draw holy water. Behind it is the Refectory and between them is St Sergius Church built in 1686-92 by Tsars Peter I and Ivan V in gratitude for having been sheltered by the monastery during Streltzi revolt..
