Nikolsky Monastery, Orthodox monastery in Gorokhovets, Russia

The Nikolsky Monastery stands on Nikolskaya Hill with its stone walls enclosing multiple religious structures, including the Trinity Cathedral and St John Climacus Church.

The monastery site originated as a wooden fortress in the early 17th century before construction of the Trinity Cathedral commenced between 1681 and 1689.

The monastery complex includes two wooden chapels near its grounds, with one containing a holy spring and another housing separate bathing sections for men and women.

Visitors can find the monastery at 12 Ulitsa Proletarskaya in Gorokhovets, where regular religious services take place following its return to the Orthodox Church in 1993.

The monastery survived the 1920s period of religious building closures, though parts of its walls and the Intercession Gate-Church experienced demolition during that time.
