The folk calendar gives a clue to Anna Kholodna.
Today, November 16, the Orthodox Church and the faithful of the Volgograd region commemorate Grand Duchess Anna Vsevolodovna, daughter of Grand Duke Vsevolod Yaroslavovich of Kiev and Princess Anna.
Princess Anna vowed to devote her whole life to God after her failed wedding to the Byzantine heir. In 1086, Prince Vsevolod built a monastery for his daughter in St. Andrew’s Church. She became the first abbess of St. Andrew’s Monastery.
According to the popular calendar, the day is called Anna Kholodnaya. There is a hint that November 16 is the coldest day of the month.
