Religion

When the fortress city was founded, it came under the jurisdiction of the Astrakhan rulers, who since 1723 bore the title of “Stavropol” - after the name of the former fortress of the same name on Sulak. In 1829, the city was transferred to the newly established Novocherkassk diocese. In 1842-1843, during the organization of an independent Caucasian diocese, it became its cathedral city. In 1846, the Caucasian (then Stavropol) Theological Seminary was established in the city. In 1886 the diocese was renamed Stavropol. By the beginning of the century, there were 27 Orthodox parishes in the city.

On May 19-24, 1919, the South Russian Council of bishops cut off from the hierarchy by the civil war took place in the city, at which the Provisional Higher Church Administration of the South-East of Russia was established. Later, during the civil war, the clergy of the city and region were destroyed in large numbers. In 1922, as throughout the diocese, the Renovationists quickly gained strength, depriving the Orthodox of the majority of parishes; in 1923-1945 the Stavropol Renovation diocese operated. In the 1920s-1930s, there was a massive closure of the city’s churches; only the Assumption Church, built in 1849, operated without interruption during the Soviet period. The Stavropol Theological Seminary was able to revive its activities in 1946-1960, after which it was again forced to close.

Since the end of the century there has been a revival of church life, the restoration of old churches and the construction of new ones. The seminary was revived in 1990. Since 2012, the city has become the center of the newly established Stavropol Metropolis.

At the beginning of the century, a church, a synagogue, a church and a mosque operated in the city.
