The village has two churches: a stone one with a bell tower, built in 1836 through the efforts of the parishioners, and a wooden one, constructed in 1737. The stone church is surrounded by a stone fence, while the wooden one is enclosed by a log fence. The cemetery is located near the wooden church and is also fenced. The stone church has three altars: the main one is dedicated to the Nativity of the Most Holy Theotokos, and the side altars are dedicated to St. Macarius of Unzha and the martyr Sophia. The wooden church has two altars: the main one in the name of St. Ephrem the Syrian, and the side altar dedicated to St. George the Great Martyr and St. Catherine the Great Martyr.

The village is located 185 versts from Kostroma and 60 versts from Kologriv. The nearest churches are: Nikoloshirskaya, 3 versts away; Rizopolozhenskaya in the village of Parfenyevo, 10 versts away; and Transfiguration in the village of Potrusova, 12 versts away.

In the 17th century, the village was part of the Parfenev siege of the Galich district. In 1627, the church of St. Ephrem was mentioned in the Parfenev volost. In 1653, the church of the Nativity of the Most Pure Theotokos with a side altar of St. Macarius of Unzha and another church of St. Ephrem the Syrian with a side altar of St. George the Great Martyr were mentioned.

In October 1724, priests Timofey Akensimov and Kyprian Ivanov, along with parishioners, appealed to the Synodal Treasury with a request to allow the construction of a new church on the site of the churches of the Nativity of the Most Holy Theotokos and St. Ephrem the Syrian that had burned down from lightning. In March 1725, they reported that the church of the Nativity of the Most Holy Theotokos had already been built and was ready for consecration, while the altar of St. Ephrem the Syrian had not yet been erected.

In March 1736, priest Safroniy Agapitov from the Parfenev siege wrote to the Synodal Treasury expressing the desire to restore the burned churches of St. Ephrem the Syrian and St. George the Great Martyr at their former locations. The church construction decree was issued on March 11, 1737.
