The Church in the name of Nicholas the Wonderworker, known as the "Kremlin" or "City" church, is located in the ancient Kremlin of the city of Vladimir, next to the archbishop's house by its western wall. Its foundation dates back to ancient times, as it was already known as "Nikola-Old" in the early 17th century. The descriptive book of the Vladimir Kremlin from 1626 mentions "the temple of Nicholas the Wonderworker of the old with chapels, with a refectory and a warm temple of Simeon the Stylite made of wood." The patriarchal books from 1628 also record "the church of the great wonderworker Nicholas the old." These wooden churches existed until the early 18th century, but little information about them has survived. In 1710, the priests at the church were Fyodor Fyodorov and Andrey Fyodorov, and the deacon was his son Alexey Andreev. In the same year, an antimension was issued from the patriarchal order for the consecration of the Church of Nicholas the Wonderworker in Vladimir. It is likely that the church was rebuilt, requiring a new consecration. During a fire on October 1, 1719, the Nikol-Kremlin church burned down along with the warm church. In 1721, parishioners acquired a warm church in the village of Pogrebishchi in the name of the Most Holy Theotokos of Vladimir, from which a new warm church was built in Vladimir. The cold church in the name of Nicholas the Wonderworker was built only in 1747, as noted in the Topographical Description of Vladimir from 1761. It is likely that a lack of funds caused the delay in the construction of the cold church. In 1761, the construction of a stone church with a chapel began at a new location. The chapel was completed in 1762 and consecrated in the name of Simeon the Stylite with the blessing of Bishop Antoniy. The Nikolsky temple was completed only in 1769. Until 1850, the church retained its original appearance. In that year, a new chapel was added on the southern side, and now the church has three altars: in the cold part in the name of Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker, in the warm right chapel in the name of Simeon the Stylite, and in the left, in honor of the Tikhvin Icon of the Mother of God. A tall stone bell tower was built along with the church. Church documents have been preserved intact, including copies of metric books from 1803 and confession lists from 1829. The church has a capital of 225 rubles, the interest from which is used, and a small shop in the church watchman's house. The income from the rental of the shop benefits the church. The clergy consists of a priest and a psalmist. Their maintenance is covered by the income from services and needs, the interest from the capital of 4396 rubles and 56 kopecks, set aside for eternal remembrance, and the rent for church land. There are no church houses for the clergy. The parish includes 290 men and 330 women, all living in Vladimir. Since 1876, a church-parish charity has been operating at the church. In 1929, the temple was closed, and in 1962, a planetarium opened in its building.
