Church of the Resurrection, 17th-century Orthodox church in Kostroma, Russia

The Church of the Resurrection stands on the left bank of the Volga on Nizhnyaya Debrya Street. It is a cross-domed, four-pillar church with five domes and three apses, raised on a basement and surrounded by galleries with three tented porches. The north chapel of the Three Hierarchs has a single dome above a row of kokoshniks.

The stone church was built in the mid-17th century, no later than 1652, replacing a wooden predecessor. The merchant Kirill Isakov of the Gostinaya sotnya funded it, reportedly after finding gold coins in a paint barrel shipped from England. In 1801 its original bell tower was dismantled and a new one attached to the neighbouring Znamensky church. Closed in the 1930s and used as a granary, it reopened in 1946 and from 1964 served over a quarter-century as Kostroma's cathedral.

The church displays intricate frescoes painted by master craftsmen Vasili Zapokrovsky and Gur Nikitin, reflecting how religious art shaped the community's spiritual life. Visitors can see these painted scenes covering the interior walls and understand the importance of visual storytelling in Orthodox worship.

The building is an important cultural monument that requires respectful visiting practices to ensure both personal safety and the preservation of the structures. Check ahead for access times and current conditions, as churches may have varying accessibility depending on services and events.

The Holy Gates stand on the west side of the church, built of brick with white stone details as a two-span arch: a wide passage for vehicles and a narrower one for pedestrians, set along the street line. In 1967–1969 restoration work covered the entrance group and these gates.
