Kiev Pechersk Lavra
St. Nestor died around 1114 and was buried in the Near Caves. He has been glorified (canonized) as a saint by the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. The body of the ancient chronicler may be seen among the relics preserved in the Kiev Pechersk Lavra. His feast day is celebrated on October 27. He is also commemorated in common with other saints of the Kiev Caves Lavra on September 28 (Synaxis of the Venerable Fathers of the Kiev Caves) and on the Second Sunday of Great Lent.
