History
For the first time the wooden church of the Presentation of the Lord is mentioned in 1636 in the census books. In 1685, a stone two-storey church with a side-altar of Stefan Surozhsky was erected with donations from Yaroslavl merchant Pavel Yakimov Denisovskiy [1] .
Also earlier, the western side of the Sretenskaya Church had a warm temple of the Icon of the Mother of God “The Sign”. About this church at the present time it is only known that in 1819 it was completely dismantled, and a new temple was built on this place [2] .
The cold stone Srensky temple was completely rebuilt twice in its history. For the first time in 1833, the Sretensky Church became one-storied, and the limit of Stefan Surozhsky was transferred to a warm church. For the second time in 1891 - 1895, the temple was rebuilt in the pseudo-Russian style. The architect was N.I. Pozdeev , and the works were financed by the Yaroslavl industrialist I.N. Dunayev . A throne appeared in the altar of the church in the name of the great martyr and healer Panteleimon [2] .
In 1918, the priest and church composer Vasily Nikolayevich Zinoviev organized his singing chapel here, which lasted until 1925. A funeral service for Father Vasily also took place in the Sretensky Church [2] .
In Soviet times, in 1929, the temple was closed, and in 1930 it was converted to the club Medsantruda. In 1931 it was decided to blow up the temple, but it was not implemented. Later, a warehouse and a bakery were located in the building of the former temple, and from the 1970s there were located workshops of the Yaroslavl production sewing association [1] .
In 1994, the Sretenskaya Church was transferred to the Russian Orthodox Church [3] .
