This category collects articles about landmarks of Nizhny Novgorod and the region that have already been lost or are under threat of disappearing: demolished buildings, closed institutions, places destroyed by fire or abandoned. The city has lost no small number of notable sites — from pre-revolutionary churches to Soviet-era cinemas and parks of culture.
Notable landmarks in this category include Nizhpoligraf, a historic complex on Varvarskaya Street founded with funds from the Rukavishnikov family; the Russia Cinema, one of the largest Soviet-era cinemas in the Leninsky district; the Troitskaya Verkhneposadskaya Church, demolished during the Soviet period; and Galaktika Cafe — a characteristic example of late-Soviet architecture in Avtozavodsky Park, which disappeared in the early 2000s.
