Svyato-Sretensky Convent

The Сonvent in honour of the Presentation of the Vladimir Icon of the Mother of God was founded by a decree of Patriarch Nikon in 1658. Originally wooden, the Convent was built in the centre of the town's settlement. In the inventory of the town dated back to 1678, it is indicated that in the Sretensky Convent there were '20 cells with 44 sisters in them'. Stone construction began in the convent in 1689. Semyon Yershov sponsored the construction of the cold Sretensky Cathedral and a three-tier bell tower.
The convent buildings are adjoined by a merchant palace of the 17th century (the Shiryaevs' (Shumilina's) House).

Transfiguration Cathedral

In early July 1876, it was decided to build a cathedral. The nobility, merchants, clergy, and ordinary citizens collected 10,000 roubles in silver for the Cathedral, which was erected in 1879. Then, five years of finishing works followed. The Transfiguration Cathedral was consecrated in 1884.

Wooden Architecture Museum

The Wooden Architecture Museum established in the 1960s represents a full-size model of an early Russian town. Interestingly, all structures are real! Residential houses, churches, mills, barns, drying sheds were transported to Suzdal from villages and rural settlements of the Vladimir region. 18 wooden architecture monuments of the 18th and 19th centuries are located here.
