Sabbas of Storozhi (Template:Langx; died 1407) was a Russian Orthodox monk and saint of the 14th and 15th centuries. He was the founder and the first hegumen of the monastery of the Nativity of the Theotokos in Zvenigorod on Storozhi hill, which was later named after him (Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery).

Sabbas was one of the first disciples of Sergius of Radonezh and spent almost the whole of his life in Trinity-St. Sergius Lavra.[1]

Sabbas was very popular for his alleged healings, sagacity and preaching. He died in 1407 and was canonized in 1547.

Commemorated on August 23 and December 19.[2]
