The Meeting of the Lord Church was built on the embankment of the River Vologda on the Zarechye side of the city between 1731 and 1735 in the Russian baroque style. In 1830 a bell tower in the Russian gothic revival style was added on to the main part of the church. The church was closed in 1930 and has so far never been reopened, but its external appearance has been maintained in quite a good condition.
