Blessed Basil of Kubensk
The blessed Basil of Kamen lived during the fifteenth
century and was a monk at the Savior-Kamen monastery, on an island of Lake
Kuben (not far from Vologda). At the shrine of his relics, built
afterwards in a church in honor of St Basil of Moscow, is a full-length
icon of St Basil of Kamen, with heavy iron chains and a cap of iron
strips.
