- Abstract
The article considers both preserved and lost Roman Catholic and Evangelical Lutheran churches located in the territory of the multi-ethnic and multi-confessional region of the Lower Volga region. The presence of national cultures of Poles, Germans determined the distinctive features of the development of religious construction, especially in places of compact residence. The basis for the emergence and development of the churches of Lutherans, Catholics, Mennonites, was the traditional Western European architecture. Roman Catholic and Evangelical Lutheran churches are an integral part of the cultural heritage of the Lower Volga, which has not yet been studied. The study of the sources, as well as the field survey, revealed the typology of the cult architecture of the colonists, and its planning, volumetric, spatial, constructive, and stylistic solutions. The characteristic features of the organization and construction of the Roman Catholic and Evangelical Lutheran churches of the colonial settlements of the Lower Volga region associated with Western European traditions are revealed.
