The wooden church was built in 1893 and is designed in the architectural traditions of classicism. It is a three-part temple, where the main volumes are located on one axis: the temple itself, the narthex, and the bell tower adjacent to the western facade. In 1978 and 1981, side chapels were added to the church, complicating its originally simple volumetric-spatial composition. The temple's square base, which has two windows, is covered with a four-pitched roof and adorned with an octagonal decorative dome. On the eastern side, a flat quadrangular altar adjoins the square base, which is already part of the main volume of the church. The narthex, located to the west of the square base, has the same width as the temple itself. The main entrance is highlighted by a covered porch with a triangular pediment and a portico of two columns in the Tuscan order. The external walls of the log structures are clad with planks that imitate the rustication of stone buildings, and the corners of the facades are emphasized by rusticated pilasters. The window openings are decorated with frames characteristic of eclecticism.
The fence was built in 1902, and around the same time, two chapels appeared, designed in a unified architectural style. These structures made of red molded brick, popular in the 'Russian' style, serve both as building material and decorative elements.
The fence stands on a rubble foundation and consists of a low brick wall divided into sections by columns. The surface of the sections and columns is adorned with a pattern of crosses and diamonds, created by alternating protruding and recessed bricks.
The chapels to the south and north resemble octagonal towers with tented roofs and onion domes. The corners of the octagons are visually reinforced by paired half-columns, on which pointed arches rest. Under the arches are niches, as well as door and window openings with wrought iron grilles. The cornice of the chapels is supported by two tiers of arcature belts and a row of small bricks.
This complex, which includes the wooden church, chapels, and fence, is a monument to temple architecture of the Urals from the late 19th to early 20th centuries, executed in the 'Russian' style.
