Nikolsky Monastery (Staraya Ladoga)
During the Time of Troubles the monastery was totally destroyed, and was only restored in the 1620s. A religious parish school was set up in the Nikolsky cathedral in 1810, later followed by a school for the village’s children; V. M. Maximov, the famous artist, was educated here.
A stone wharf on the banks of the river Volkhov has been constructed for visitors, along with a 25-step staircase and two approach ramps.
