Uspenskaya Church
standing between the main Trade square and the Kremlin at the pediment of a high fort rampart. The previous rural Uspenskaya church it is thought to have been known in the ХVI century A.D. There is an assertion that by the end of the XVII century on the site of a wooden church had been built the extant stone church of our days that was reconstructed immediately after the conflagration in Suzdal in 1720 year. After the Revolution some temple premises and buildings we completely destroyed : the domed belfry and side chapel of Sergei Radonezhsky (the XVII-XVIII centuries) and a beautiful fence with gates as well were obliterated.
