Already in 1392 there were more monastic buildings here. This religious building enjoyed attention among rich people in Russia. Therefore, in the northeast it was one of the richest monasteries. Most of the icons were in silver or gold frames, decorated with pearls and precious stones.
Despite the fact that the monastery was known far beyond Kirzhach, as a result of Catherine's administrative reform, it was abolished.
The land was transferred to the state, and the property - to the Trinity-Sergius Lavra.
From 1764 to 1844 the monastery was a parish. Due to the fact that the population was not so large and it lived in poverty, almost all the buildings fell into disrepair. The merchant Solovyov took up the restoration of the religious building. He mastered iconography and painted the walls of the monastery. In the Soviet years, the monastery did not function for its intended purpose. At different times, ammunition was stored here, there was a sausage shop, a bakery.
The building of the monastery was returned to the Russian Orthodox Church only in 1989. A year later, a Divine Liturgy was held here. Gradually, the religious building was restored, and in 1995 the Annunciation Monastery was completely restored as a convent.
