The Chapel of Archangel Michael was built in the village of Lelikozero in the last third of the 17th century and became part of the Velikogubsky parish from the 18th century. In 1961, it was relocated to Kizhi Island. The interior of the chapel has been preserved in its original form, including a two-tiered iconostasis and a ceiling structure known as the "sky," dating back to the 17th-18th centuries. The icons of the iconostasis and the "sky" were painted in the last third of the 17th century.

The chapel consists of a small rectangular prayer hall, a long refectory that is twice the size of the main room, and a covered porch with a bell tower. On the northern side of the western part of the chapel, a vestibule has been added. The composition of the chapel is horizontally arranged from equally wide log structures of the chapel, refectory, and vestibule. The bell tower is supported by single round columns. The roofing is made of timber: above the refectory and vestibule, it is nail-free, while in the second case, it is nailed with red timber.

In 2012, a roof restoration was carried out, which included a complete replacement of the timber and the rafters, the purlins, the beams under the cross mast, the gables, and the towels. A new cross was installed, and the dome and drum of the chapel were disassembled and reassembled, replacing some elements. The log structure of the chapel was refurbished to floor level, damaged logs were replaced, and repairs were made to eliminate the deformation of the northern wall. The wrought iron grilles on the windows were restored, and a protective roof over the "sky" was installed using profiled sheets. The front part of the porch with the staircase was refurbished, and earthworks were conducted to divert water from the porch. Fire alarm and lightning protection systems were also installed.
