In 1837, a wooden church dedicated to the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God was built, which was not heated and could accommodate 800 people. According to legend, the central part of the building was transported from the neighboring village of Pokrovka.

In 1907, due to the cramped conditions and dilapidation of the church, the local community decided to build a new temple in the name of John the Baptist and to renovate the old Kazan church. The villagers committed to bring construction materials for these works. After the reconstruction, the Kazan church was expanded and could now accommodate 1200 people, and a bell tower was added.

In 1937, both churches in the village were closed, the John the Baptist temple was destroyed, and a cultural center was later built in its place. Icons were removed from the Kazan church, which the residents used to fuel their stoves. The royal gates were given to a school, where they were used as blackboards. However, the parishioners managed to preserve and return the gates, most of the icons, and the iconostasis, which returned to the church after its reopening in 1947.

The story of the return of the altar Gospel, created in 1859 and donated by the Kosiakins family, who brought it from Jerusalem, is particularly remarkable. After the church was ravaged, Maria Ivanovna Kosiakina hid the Gospel in the wall of her house. Despite searches, the relic was preserved and returned to the church after services resumed. Icons and church utensils from other destroyed temples were also returned to the church.

The renovation of the Kazan church began in 1953, when Archpriest Stefan Akashev served there. The authorities did not allow interior painting, so Father Stefan hired an artist to paint icons at home, which were then discreetly installed in the church. Thus, the church was decorated. The church acquired its current appearance thanks to the efforts of Father Stefan. The Iberian Icon of the Mother of God is especially venerated in the church. One parishioner prayed daily before it for her son’s healing from epilepsy. After her son recovered, she donated a silver-plated cover to the icon, and since then the icon is considered miraculous.
