On Posadskaya Street, among green courtyards, stands the Church of St. Nicholas of Posad, also known as the Church of the Resurrection of the Word. This is one of the oldest and most beautiful churches in Posad and all of Kolomna. The first mention of a wooden church in the name of Nicholas "the Wet" appears in the land books of 1577-1578. The modern building in the style of "Moscow ornamentation" was built with the funds of parishioners in 1716. Along with the church, a tented bell tower was erected, of which only the foundation with an arched passage, an internal staircase, and tiled decor remain. In ancient times, this bell tower was called "Forty Bells" for its lace-like arches that gave it lightness. In 1763, a stone almshouse was built next to the bell tower.

During the Soviet era, the church was converted into housing. Icons, church utensils, and iconostases were lost in the mid-1920s, and the frescoes were painted over with oil paints to avoid frightening the residents. In 1960, the church was granted the status of a federal monument requiring protection. However, restoration only began in 1970. During the work from 1970 to 1985, the facade decor, apses, kokoshniks, roofing were restored, and lace crosses were installed.

The restoration was carried out according to the project of the famous restorer V. V. Kavelmakher by specialists from the Kolomna restoration workshop. In 1992, the building was transferred to the Orthodox Old Believer community, and the lace crosses were replaced with simpler ones. The church is currently active, but the Old Believers are against visits from outsiders. The uniqueness of the church is emphasized by the unusual execution of the roofing made of arches arranged one above the other. The high two-light square stands on a vast basement, and the portals and windows are decorated with brick carvings. The vault of the church is covered with six rows of kokoshniks, totaling more than 105. These kokoshniks were called "fire-like," comparing them to tongues of flame frozen in stone, which is why such churches were called "fiery." Writers referred to St. Nicholas Church in Posad as the "Kolomna Firebird." The top of the church is crowned with a "bunch" of five domes, the central drum is light, while the other four are "blind." There is one dome over the Nicholas chapel. The gilding of the central dome is combined with the covering of the other four, made of glazed tiles. Stairs decorated with tents led to the western porch and portals. The lace-like "blooming" crosses with crowns were especially beautiful, about which there is a legend. After the church was built, weddings took place there, but a rising storm blew the crowns off the newlyweds and placed them on the crosses. It turned out that the young couple were brother and sister, separated in childhood. The Lord did not allow the lawlessness to occur and crowned the crosses instead of them.
