The most ancient building in the Murom region, not counting the 17th century temple buildings in Murom itself.
The first chronicle information about the Borisoglebsky Monastery dates back to 1345. The chronicles tell of the death of Prince Vasily Yaroslavich at the end of winter and his burial in Murom. The Nikon Chronicle specifies: "... in the monastery on Ushna". This is quite acceptable, since Murom then "lay empty", and only in 1351 did Prince Yuri begin its restoration. The earliest historical document of the Borisoglebsky Monastery dates back to 1506.
