temples and churches

Cathedral of the Resurrection of Christ

The largest building on the square is the House of Culture, the former Resurrection Cathedral. In 1820, the construction of a new stone cathedral began in Danilov. Its construction was completed in 1827 by the diligence of N. D. Potashin. The new stone church was soon rebuilt in 1839, receiving a dedication to the Resurrection of the Living. In this form, the summer temple existed until the middle of the 20th century, until it was rebuilt as a Cultural center.

In 1936-1939, the bell tower of the cathedral was adapted for a parachute tower. In 1961, after reconstruction and an additional extension, a cultural center with a widescreen sound cinema, a lecture hall, and rooms for amateur art groups was opened in the cathedral.

The main attraction of the Yaroslavl region is a constellation of 12 ancient cities: Yaroslavl, Gavrilov-Yam, Danilov, Lyubim, Myshkin, Pereslavl-Zalessky, Poshekhonye, Rostov the Great, Rybinsk, Tutaev, Uglich and the flooded Mologa. Each of them has its own unique appearance and atmosphere.
