Vysokovsky Uspensky Monastery is one of the few surviving monastic complexes with a notable architectural ensemble from the Classicism period. The monastery's stone structures were erected in the early 19th century, almost simultaneously, which ensured the unity and integrity of a large architectural ensemble. A distinctive feature of the monastery complex's layout is the arrangement of its buildings across three terraces with a height difference of up to 14 metres.
From 1917, the monastery entered years of neglect and silence. The monastic estate was gradually destroyed.
In 1979, by a resolution of the Gorky Regional Executive Committee, the surviving architectural ensemble of the monastery was placed under state protection as an architectural monument, and in 1995 it was granted the status of a monument of federal significance.
The revival of the monastery began in 1999, when the surviving monastic buildings were transferred to Nizhny Novgorod and Arzamas Diocese.
