Sretensky Monastery, Orthodox monastery in Gorokhovets, Russia.
The Sretensky Monastery features a stone bell tower reaching 35 meters high and includes two-storey cells surrounding the central Candlemas Cathedral.
Founded in 1658 with wooden structures, the monastery underwent major stone construction in 1689 funded by merchant Semyon Ershov to build the main cathedral.
The architectural ensemble demonstrates late 17th-century Russian Orthodox design elements through carved window frames and distinctive keel-shaped kokoshnik decorations.
The monastery, located on Soviet Street in Gorokhovets, operates as an active religious institution since its revival in 2001 after periods of civil use.
During the 19th century, the monastery buildings served various functions including government offices, a city prison, and commercial enterprises.
