The holy and right-believing '''Daniel of Moscow''' was the Grand Prince of Moscow, son of the holy and right-believing [[Alexander Nevsky]]. Being the youngest son, he inherited the poor principality of Moscow that through his adroit and peaceful handling of the princely internecine warfare developed into the capital of a united Russian land. He founded the first [[monastery]], [[St. Daniel Monastery (Moscow)|St. Daniel Monastery]], in Moscow, at the Church of St. Daniel the Stylite. He is remembered on [[March 17]] ([[March 4]]) and [[September 12]] ([[August 30]]).
