Catholic Assumption Church, Nizhny Novgorod, Catholic temple in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia.

The Catholic Assumption Church stands at Studyonaya Street 10b in Nizhny Novgorod, the third Catholic church in the city's history. Its pseudo-Gothic design, drawn up by architect Dombrovsky with engineer Kuntsevich and approved in 1913, features pointed windows and red brick walls. A two-storey wooden clergy house built in 1912 stands on the parish grounds.

The present church is chronologically the third Catholic church in Nizhny Novgorod. The first, consecrated on 15 August 1861 on Zelenskoy Spusk, was built in a pseudo-Gothic style with red walls and pointed windows, and was blown up in 1924. A second church, begun in 1914 on Studyonaya Street to a design by architect Dombrovsky and engineer Kuntsevich, was closed in 1929. On 21 November 2025 the historic building at Studyonaya 8 was transferred to the parish; the working church stands at Studyonaya 10b.

The parish traces its roots to Polish exiles sent to Nizhny Novgorod after the 1830 uprising, who formed the city's first lasting Catholic community. By 1914 Catholics there numbered about 5,700, among them Poles, Lithuanians, Belarusians, Armenians, Russians, Germans and Latvians. The parish ran a school, a library and a choir.

The current church is at Studyonaya Street 10b, not on any manor grounds. The historic 1861 church stood at Studyonaya Street 8; on 21 November 2025 that building was officially transferred to the parish. Services are the reliable time to see the interior.

The present church is chronologically the third Catholic church in Nizhny Novgorod. The first, consecrated on 15 August 1861 on Zelenskoy Spusk, was built in a pseudo-Gothic style with red walls, pointed windows and a rose window, and was blown up in 1924. The second, begun in 1914, was closed in 1929; on 21 November 2025 the historic building at Studenaya Street 8 was transferred to the parish, while the working church stands at Studenaya 10b.
