The Novo-Tikhvin Monastery is a community of female monastics located in Ekaterinburg, Russia. The monastery was founded late in the eighteenth century, growing out of an alms-house at the cemetery church in Ekaterinburg. It is the home of the icon of the Tikhvin Mother of God. Closed in 1920 after the takeover of the government of Russia by the Bolsheviks, monastic life at the monastery was restored in 1994.
