The original wooden church was built in 1762. The stone temple with a bell tower was constructed and consecrated in 1826 thanks to the efforts of Prince Gruzinsky and the parishioners. The church has three altars: the central one, in the cold part, is dedicated to the Epiphany of the Lord and was consecrated in 1846; the right warm chapel in honor of the Nativity of the Most Holy Theotokos was consecrated in 1828; the left, in honor of Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker, was consecrated in 1830. In 1902, a refectory and church fence with iron grilles and doors were erected.

The church's income came from collection boxes and land. The parish owned houses built with the funds of parishioners: the priest's house in 1860 and the deacon's house in 1913.

The parish included chapels: one in memory of the miraculous salvation of Emperor Nicholas Alexandrovich from danger that threatened him on April 29, 1891, in the Japanese city of Otsu; another in memory of the martyr's death of Emperor Alexander II.

The parish included the village of Epiphany, the villages of Saradon, Uchevatikha, Lgotska, and the settlement of Kuznetsovo.

The clergy of the parish were: from 1819 to 1857, priest Grigory Petrovich Petrov; from 1857 to 1860, priest Peter Petrovich Pevitsky; from 1860 to 1888, priest Ioann Ioannovich Krotkov; from 1888 to 1919, priest Raphael Alekseevich Pevitsky.

In 1936, the church was closed, and in 1937 it was destroyed. From 1945, it was not used due to unsuitability. In 1989, the church was returned to the Nizhny Novgorod diocese, and in 1993, services resumed there. The church is registered as a monument of history and cultural heritage.
