Skiti Bogoroditsa
Bogoroditsa is a skete of the Agiou Panteleimonos monastery in the monastic state of Mount Athos, Greece.
The Skete is situated in a forested area, between the monasteries of Vatopedi and Pantokrator. It is inhabited by Bulgarian monks and it follows the coenobitic way of monastic life. The complex became a skete in 1818 and today has a main church and secondary chapel.
Bogoroditsa lies on the site of the pre-existing monastery of Xylourgos. Xylourgos had been a fully, independent Russian community known from as early as 1020. The majority of the community moved in 1169 to the Monastery of St. Panteleimon, but Xylourgos continued to thrive through the 11th and 12th century
