The cross is made in the image of the miraculous Life-giving Cross of the Lord, revealed in the Rostov land on June 29/11, 1423. The legend tells that on that day the shepherds, who were grazing cattle not far from the Sakhotsky swamp in the field near the Nikolsky churchyard, saw in the east an indescribable light pouring from heaven to earth. At first, the shepherds were frightened, but enchanted by the unearthly beauty of this phenomenon, after consulting, they decided: “Let's go and see what a miracle is for us? And if this miracle is manifested by God, then we preach the glory of God.” When they reached the place of the miraculous phenomenon, they saw the Life-Giving Cross standing in the air in an indescribable light with the image of the Crucifixion of the Lord, and in front of it - the image of the miracle worker Nicholas with the Holy Gospel. The shepherds bowed to the majesty of God and heard a voice: “The grace of God and the house of God will be in this place; if someone comes with faith to pray, there will be many healings and miracles from the Life-giving Cross of prayers for the sake of the miracle worker Nicholas. Go and preach this to all people, so that my church will be built in this place.” At present, this greatest shrine of Orthodox Russia resides in the church in the name of St. John Chrysostom in the village of Godenovo, not far from the city of Pereslavl-Zalessky.Size Height of the cross with "ears" - 10 cm width of the cross - 5.5 cm thickness - 1.2 cm.
