From here we move on to one of the earliest surviv­ing specimens of Vladimir-Suzdalian architecture, the twelfth-century church in Kideksha.

We set off from the main square. On the way we pass another interesting seventeenth-century building, the cathedral of the Monastery of St. Basil which was founded in the thirteenth century as one of the town's defensive outposts. Parts of the present walls date back to the seventeenth century. The cathedral was built between 1662-1669 in place of an old wooden, tent-shaped church. It has the same two-pillared structure that we observed earlier in the Church of St. Lazarus. Unlike the festive appearance of the latter standing with its five domes in a busy part of the town near to the market place, the cathedral of this monastery outside the town produces a very austere impression. It has three domes like the old cathedral in the kremlin, small portals and a few plain windows. Nearby stands the two-storey re­fectory Church of the Purification built at the end of the seventeenth century and remarkable for its intersecting double-hipped roof similar to that on the church of the Archbishop's Palace in the kremlin. The cathedral, refec­tory church and walls were all restored in 1959-1961 by V. V. Gasperovich.
