This category brings together articles about buildings in Nizhny Novgorod and the region recognized as architectural monuments, including those of federal significance. The region's architectural heritage spans buildings from different eras: from medieval fortifications to merchants' chambers and museum complexes. Among the most significant sites are the The Kremlin and the Olisov's Chamber, one of the main landmarks of Zapochainye. Matters of protecting such sites are regulated at the state level, yet, as the example of Vyksa shows, the status of a Architectural Monument of Federal Significance does not always protect a building from being lost.
