The purpose of the study is to deepen the knowledge of history of Orthodox monasteries of the Kyiv diocese, to clarify their typology and structure during the synodal period, as well as the conditions that influenced their formation.

The scientific novelty is determined by the author’s statement of the researched issue, its comprehensive study and analysis. The Conclusions. The synodal period of the Russian Orthodox Church is characterized by the structural typology formation of monasteries, which was carried out as a result of changes under social and economic conditions and related reforms of a monastic and church life. The change in the number of Orthodox monasteries of the Kyiv diocese occurred as a result of closure, reorganization, change of their status, transformation from male to female.
It has been determined that the monasteries of the Kyiv diocese during the synodal period can be classified as follows: according to the system of subordination and status (lavra, stauropygial, eparchial), according to the gender of monks (male, female), territorial and geographical factor (urban, rural), system of subordination, maintenance, management and size (full-time, part-time), according to the statute, which regulated the arrangement and way of life of the monastery (communal, non-communal), according to the type of monastic settlements (monasteries, hermitages), according to a functional specialization (hospital, school, work).
