It was founded on July 25, 1854, with church funds and donations from parishioners. Among the particularly venerated relics are parts of the remains of holy servants and the miraculous Bogolyubskaya icon of the Mother of God, placed in a silver cross reliquary.

A two-story stone house has been built for the clergy's residence and the church school, which contains six large rooms. The church capital amounts to 1988 rubles.
