The appearance of this monastery happened thanks the miraculous appearance of the icon of the Holy Virgin. In the spring of 1494 the young shepherds went deep into the forest, and there among the thick branches of a wild pear have seen wonderful glow that emanated from the small icons. They reverently removed the icon from the tree and brought it into the house of their master Soltan, telling him about the extraordinary circumstances of the amazing find. He did not pay much attention to the story of the shepherds and indifferently put the icon in a casket. Only in the evening he told to the guests about the discovery of the shepherds, and wanted to show the icon. But after opening the casket, he did not find it. On the following day the shepherds come to its original place and saw again the same icon in the glare on the pear. They brought it to the boyar again. He perceived th miracle of God, took relic with reverence and went to the place of its appear. After praying, he made a vow to God to build here the temple in honor of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
