Saint Menas Church, Orthodox church in Staraya Russa, Russia

Saint Menas Church is an inactive medieval Orthodox church in the southern part of Staraya Russa, at the corner of Georgievskaya Street and Pisatelsky Lane, near the Georgievskaya Church and the Dostoevsky House-Museum. It is a four-pillar, single-dome, single-apse church with a lower church (podtserkovye).

The exact construction date is unknown; the church is first mentioned in a 1497/1498 cadastral book. Two wooden churches burned on the site before the stone church was built, probably in the 1410s–1420s, as mortar analysis by I. V. Antipov suggests. Swedish troops looted it in 1614, and it was restored in the 1650s with funds from the Iveron Monastery. It was closed in 1938 after the arrest of its rector, Nikolai Baklanov, and damaged in World War II.

The church is dedicated to Menas of Egypt, a third-century martyr, and its name gave the surrounding street the name Mininskaya. The building is inactive and not used for worship; after restoration it stood unused and deteriorated. Its parish once included 15 villages along the Porusya River, reduced to five in 1832.

The church is inactive and not open for worship; it stands at the corner of Georgievskaya Street and Pisatelsky Lane in the southern part of Staraya Russa, near the Georgievskaya Church and the Dostoevsky House-Museum. Visitors can view the exterior at any time; there are no regular opening hours or services.

The church is inactive: its last rector, protopriest Nikolai Baklanov, was arrested on 12 February 1938 and shot on 6 March; the building then passed to the city executive committee. Restoration in 1960–1962 under Lyubov Shulyak closed 19th-century openings and restored facade decoration, yet the monument was left unused afterwards.
