Vasily of Ryazan was a late 13th-century Eastern Orthodox bishop who served the sees of Murom and Ryazan. According to tradition, he was ordained as the Bishop of Murom and later oversaw the transfer of the episcopal seat to Old Ryazan after being falsely accused by a crowd. He is remembered for a miraculous journey across the Oka River, where he reportedly traveled upon his episcopal mantle while holding an icon of the Mother of God. He died in 1295 and is venerated as a saint in the Russian Orthodox Church.
