“The Revealed Well” spring was consecrated in honor of the Prophet John the Forerunner or the Baptist. The spring is found near Vyazovoye village where it is surrounded by well-groomed premises, a chapel, and an indoor pool and a baptismal font.
The spring received its name after the church of John the Forerunner located in the neighboring village Vyazovoye. Over two centuries ago there was a post road running here and passing-by travelers used to quench their thirst with the well water.
Several legends mention the well. One of them says that the well allegedly appeared as a result of a thunderbolt. It happened on the holiday of Birth of John the Baptist. Another legend narrates about a woman who saw the face of the Mother of God in it and that’s why it was called the revealed. At present, some people call it “the revealed spring”, others – “the thunder well”.
