Свято-Благовіщенський монастир у Ніжині засновано в 1702 році митрополитом Стефаном Яворським, брат якого служив у цей час настоятелем Свято-Миколаївського собору.
Благовіщенський собор збудовано в 1716 році за проєктом московського архітектора Григорія Устинова в стилі бароко. Мав другу назву - Назарет Богородичний. Всередині збереглися фрагменти розписів XVIII-XIX століть.
До комплексу також входить Петропавлівська церква з дзвіницею (1803 рік), будинок ігумена з трапезною та келіями (1808 рік), а також 12 монастирських крамниць.
В 1999 році комплекс передали громаді УПЦ московського патріархату, діє чоловічий монастир, проте реставрація будівель ведеться дуже повільно. Церковні крамниці використовуються як магазини, перукарні та інше.
