The Dukhovskaya settlement of the Nikitsky camp arose after the founding of the Dukhov monastery in the city of Pereslavl . In the Time of Troubles, it started up, was again populated in 1677 [1] . Currently, there is a flowing street of Pereslavl-Zalessky.
In ancient times there was a male Dukhovsky monastery. The foundation time of this monastery is unknown, but it was already in 1586. In 1611, the Lithuanians, who were in Pereslavl under the leadership of Sapieha, burned the whole monastery and, probably, due to lack of livelihood, at the request of Hegumen Misail, by the decree of Tsar Mikhail Fedorovich, this monastery was assigned to the Nikitsky monastery.
At the site of the monastery remained the parish church in the name of the Descent of the Holy Spirit. In 1788, Reverend Theophylact , the last bishop of Pereslavl, at the request of parishioners and priest Ivan Ilyin, allowed the construction of a stone church instead of a wooden one, in honor of the same holiday. A side church was built and consecrated in 1796, and a real church in 1799; then a stone bell tower was built. There were two thrones in the church: in the cold in honor of the Descent of the Holy Spirit on the apostles and in the warm in honor of the holy martyrs Adrian and Natalia [2] .
