The Church of Boris and Gleb has been known since at least the 18th century. Next to it, until 1770, there was the Church of Nicholas the Porters, mentioned in M. Mirolubov's book "Chronicle of the Village of Zaozerye." Two kilometers from the village of Derevenki, there still stands a wooden chapel of Saint Barbara the Great Martyr. Inside the chapel is a well, considered holy and healing. At the entrance lies a stone with a footprint, presumably belonging to Saint Barbara. In her honor, a local holiday is celebrated on the ninth Friday after Easter, accompanied by a procession from the Church of Boris and Gleb. In the early 20th century, the church was rebuilt, and its solemn consecration took place in 1908. The construction was actively participated in by the residents of the village of Yuryevo, among whom were wealthy merchants such as Klimov and Baranov.

The Church of Boris and Gleb is one of the few that survived the Soviet era. In the late 1930s, the cemetery fence was dismantled, the bells were removed, and the priest was arrested. Despite this, the parishioners managed to preserve the church, and the churchwarden hid with the keys in the forest. With the onset of the Great Patriotic War, the attitude towards religion softened, and Father Pavel Blagoveshchensky returned from imprisonment, serving in the temple until his death in 1963. His grave is located at the altar on the northern side.

Although the church survived, it suffered greatly from a fire that occurred on Christmas night in 1987. At that time, almost only the walls remained of the temple, and the spire from the bell tower collapsed. Only a portion of the icons and church utensils were saved. Currently, the temple is almost restored, but it is still far from its former glory.
