Since 2008, ROCOR Studies has been an independent research and documentation project devoted to the history of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia. Over the years, the website has grown into a stable and trusted point of reference for scholars, clergy, students, and readers interested in the archival, canonical, and historical legacy of the Russian Church Abroad.
In addition to publishing documents, studies, translations, and conference materials, ROCOR Studies has increasingly become involved in organizing scholarly and church-historical events. In 2026, one such project will be an international conference in Munich marking the 100th anniversary of the German Diocese of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia, scheduled for May 6–8. The conference program in Russian and German is available here: https://rocor.de/ru/konferenz
To help support this work, the ROCOR Studies online store has been launched for readers and supporters. The store offers a small but carefully curated selection of ROCOR Studies merchandise, produced specifically to accompany our research and conference activities. The current offering includes a German Diocese Centennial Collection, created in connection with the Munich conference and dedicated to the rich history of ROCOR in Germany.
The store is intended not simply as a source of memorabilia, but as one more way for readers and supporters to participate in and sustain the ongoing work of ROCOR Studies. Proceeds support the time devoted by Protodeacon Andrei Psarev to research, writing, and participation in various ROCOR-related activities.
You are warmly invited to visit the ROCOR Studies online store and explore the current selection. New items will be added gradually, in step with future initiatives and events.
