The village of Oslavskoye is located on the Nerl River, 13 versts from the city of Vladimir. In 1687, Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich transferred the village of Oslavskoye along with other possessions of the Bogolyubovo Monastery to the Moscow Patriarch Joachim. After the abolition of church estates in the 18th century, Oslavskoye came under the management of state properties.

In the early 17th century, there was already a church in Oslavskoye, as confirmed by the patriarchal salary books of 1628, which mention the Church of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker in the estate of the Bogolyubovo Monastery. In the documents of 1647, Prince Grigory Shekhonsky noted that there was a wooden church of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker in the village of Oslavskoye, which housed icons, candles, books, vestments, bells, and other church property. Serving on the church land were Priest Agey Ivanov and the prosphora baker Daryitsa, daughter of Ivanov.

In 1711, a new wooden church was built in Oslavskoye, consecrated in honor of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker by Hieromonk Nikifor from the Spaso-Andronikov Monastery in Moscow. The old wooden church was moved to the village of Lemeshek for the construction of a warm church there.

In 1816, Bishop Ksenofont of Vladimir permitted the construction of a stone church in Oslavskoye to replace the wooden one. The refectory was completed and consecrated in 1819, and the main church in 1827. This stone church, with an expanded refectory built in 1872, still exists today. A stone bell tower was built next to the church.

The church has three altars: a cold altar in honor of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, a warm altar in the refectory in honor of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God, and Archangel Michael. One of the icons has a small cross embedded with particles of holy relics. The sacristy holds a Gospel printed during the patriarchate of Job.

The church has a capital of 300 rubles, the interest from which goes to its needs. All church documents are preserved: copies of the metric books since 1803 and confession rolls since 1822. The land associated with the church includes 1.5 desyatinas of homestead land, 3 desyatinas of haymaking land, and 30 desyatinas of arable land, but there is no plan or land registry for this land. According to the staff, the clergy consists of a priest and a psalmist. Their maintenance comes from the interest on a capital of 800 rubles, income from services, needs, and land, totaling about 600 rubles per year.

The clergy's houses are wooden and located on church land. The parish includes only the village of Oslavskoye, where 457 men and 520 women reside. The parish has a public school, opened in 1860 by the local priest, which is housed in a separate building and funded by the zemstvo.
