In 1113 Chronicler Nestor wrote his ‘Tale of Bygone Years’ (Povest vremennyh let) — the main source of knowledge about the times of Kievan Rus. After a great fire of 1718, the restoration of damaged buildings and the construction of new ones began.

The Lavra caves are a system of underground passages, divided into two parts — Far and Near Caves – first mentioned in 1051. At first the caves were occupied by the monks who lived there, later they were used for the remains of settlers of the monastery.
