Piatnizkaya church was built in 1772 year near «cold», or «summer» Vhodo-Yerusalimskaya church and originally was called Nikolskaya. Once upon a time they were connected with each other in one architectural complex by way of constructing a low brick wall around them and gates with a cruciate vaulted roof at the entrance. Here, on the very spot, between the two churches, was erected the first bell tower in the history of Suzdal.
