This holiday closes the two-week Assumption Fast. He is the last of the Saviors, after Medov and Yablochny.

Today, August 29, Orthodox Christians celebrate Nut Spas. This is the last of the three Spas (preceding Honey and Apple), and also closes the two-week Assumption fast.

This holiday is celebrated on the same day every year. Nut spas got its name because during this period the hazelnuts are ripe, which can be harvested for the winter.

The Third saved was founded in honor of the transfer to Constantinople of the Image of Jesus Christ Not Made by Hands. Because of this, he was also called the Linen Savior, the Savior Not Made by Hands and the Savior on Canvas.

According to legend, Jesus washed his face with water, then dried it with a towel, reflecting his face. This image of the Savior healed the lord of Edessa from a deadly disease. In turn, the event contributed to the spread of Christianity there.
