This wiki article is better - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Novodevichy_Convent
... In 1922, the Bolsheviks closed down the Novodevichy Convent (the cathedral was the last to be closed, in 1929) and turned it into the Museum of Women's Emancipation. By 1926, the monastery had been transformed into a history and art museum. In 1934, it became affiliated with the State Historical Museum.

Marvellous historical photo!
Grand Duke Vasily III in May 1524 founded the Great Monastery of the Most Pure Mother of God Hodegetria New Maiden Monastery with a cathedral church in the name of the Smolensk Icon.
The place for the monastery was chosen in the bend of the Moscow River, three versts (it is a little more than 3 kilometres) from the Moscow Kremlin on the Maiden Field....
After the October Revolution in 1917-1918 the Monastery was actually abolished.
In 1994 the monastic community was renewed.
The architectural ensemble of the monastery, formed in the XVI-XVII centuries, has not undergone significant changes since then. As an exceptionally well-preserved example of the Moscow Baroque, it is protected by UNESCO and declared a treasure of all mankind.
The monastery is jointly administered by the Russian Orthodox Church and the State Historical Museum. Since 2010, the Church Museum of the Moscow Diocese has been operating here. -
