Nikolo-Korelsky Monastery, Orthodox monastery in Severodvinsk, Russia

The Nikolo-Korelsky Monastery features a five-domed cathedral of Saint Nicholas and an Assumption church connected by a covered gallery.

In 1471, Marfa Boretskaya initiated the restoration of the monastery after her two sons perished in a storm and were found near its shores.

The monastery gained recognition through English maritime traders, leading to the surrounding waters being labeled as Saint Nicholas Bay on 16th-century maps.

The monastery buildings now operate within the territory of a shipbuilding facility, limiting general public access to the historical structures.

Richard Chancellor's expedition in 1553 documented the monastery's pier accommodating multiple vessels, marking early English-Russian maritime trade connections.
