Tolga Katholikon, Eastern Orthodox church in Yaroslavl, Russia

The Tolga Katholikon features five golden domes and stands at the center of the monastery complex on the Volga River bank.

Founded in 1314 by Prokhor, the church marked the beginning of the religious settlement that later developed into the Tolga Monastery.

The architectural design follows the Yaroslavl school traditions, characterized by white stone walls and symmetrical proportions throughout the structure.

Visitors can reach the church via water-bus service from Yaroslavl city center, with regular departures during navigation season.

The church lacks external decorative elements, setting it apart from other Orthodox churches of the same period in the region.
