Resurrection monastery in Soligalich, Federal cultural heritage monastery in Soligalich, Russia.

The Resurrection Monastery in Soligalich consists of the Cathedral of the Resurrection of Christ (1660–1669) and the Church of the Epiphany (1681), both in disrepair. The cathedral's bell tower bears a large crack on its north facade and was stabilized in 2014 with a temporary roof and reinforced structures. The monastery walls have been destroyed and the cathedral interior lost.

Founded in 1335, the same year as Soligalich itself, the monastery is considered the town's original core: a settlement of artisans grew around it. It lived from salt extraction and received part of Lake Galich and Lake Chukhloma plus fishing rights from the princes. It was repeatedly devastated by Tatar, Polish and Lithuanian incursions and rebuilt each time. Catherine II's 1764 secularisation manifesto ended monastic life; the churches became parish churches.

The monastery gave rise to Soligalich: the town began as a settlement of artisans attached to it, and its name refers to the Resurrection of Christ. Its wealth came from salt works, mills, meadows and fishing rights on Lakes Galich and Chukhloma. The monk Alexander of Vocha took his vows here in the second half of the 14th century.

The monastery stands in the centre of Soligalich, and the town itself grew from the settlement that formed around it. The complex is not active, and its walls were destroyed in the Soviet period; only the Resurrection Cathedral (1660–1669) and the Church of the Epiphany (1681) remain, in poor condition. The bell tower threatens to collapse, so keep a safe distance from its northern facade, which shows a large crack.

The monastery is considered the original core of Soligalich: the town grew out of a settlement of craftsmen attached to it, and its founding year, 1335, is also taken as the city's founding date. The monastery lived from salt extraction and held salt works, mills, meadows and fields, plus fishing rights on nearby rivers and parts of Lakes Galich and Chukhloma.
