Cathédrale Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption
In a traditional account the horses transporting the icon had stopped near Vladimir and refused to go further. Accordingly, many people of Rus interpreted this as a sign that the "Theotokos" wanted the icon to stay there. The place was named Bogolyubovo, or "the one loved by God". Andrey placed it in his Bogolyubovo residence and built the Assumption Cathedral to legitimize his claim that Vladimir had replaced Kyiv as the principal city of Rus. The icon was soon moved to the Assumption Cathedral after its consecration in 1160.
