St. Nicholas convent in the place where klobuk of St. John was found or Nikolaev-Klobukov monastery (Russian: Николаев Клобуков монастырь) in Kashin, Tver Oblast, Russia. Founded in 1400. The first temple of the monastery was built in honor of sanctifier Nickolai Mirlikyisky ,and from here became the first part of the name of the monastery. The second part of the name is Klobukov, it is a very ancient name, and it was mentioned in the XVth century, and it is also connected with sanctifier wonder-worker Ioan Novgorodsky who, by the legend, tamed the demon and orded to take him to Jerusalem to bow to the God's Coffin. Flying over Kashin sanctifier dropped his klobuk, which was later found. On that very place the monastery in honour of Nikolay Chudotvorets (Wonder-worker) was founded. In memory of the wonderful loss by the sanctifier Ioan the second part of the 'Klobukov' monastery appeared.
