This category brings together articles about the Orthodox life of Nizhny Novgorod and its region: monasteries, churches, church figures, and related institutions. Orthodoxy is deeply rooted in the region's history — it is home to such significant monastic communities as the Seraphim-Diveyevo Convent and the The Ascension Pechersk Monastery for Men, while the veneration of Seraphim of Sarov is inseparably tied to the Nizhny Novgorod land.
The category presents material on the Nizhny Novgorod and Arzamas Diocese, individual parishes and monasteries, church hierarchs, and pilgrimage and educational projects developing in the region today.
