Yurovo has long belonged to the Vladimir Christmas Monastery. The first mention of a wooden church appears in the documents of the Patriarchal Treasury Office from 1628. In 1735, with the permission of the Synodal Treasury Office and thanks to the efforts of the parishioners of Yurovo, a new wooden church was built in honor of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, replacing the old one, which had already become quite dilapidated. The consecration was conducted by Archimandrite Pavel of the Vladimir Christmas Monastery in the same year.

The modern stone church was built in 1823 with funds from the parishioners in the classical style characteristic of that time. Judging by the typical design, small dimensions, and lack of complex engineering solutions, it can be assumed that the construction was carried out by the villagers themselves without the involvement of a well-known architect. It is likely that the project was obtained from the Vladimir diocesan consistory.

The main building of the church is a classic single-story square with a massive octagonal light drum, on which rises a spherical faceted dome with a cupola on a secondary drum. To the east, a small apse is attached, and to the west, a spacious refectory extends beyond the main line of the building. The southern chapel in honor of the icon "Joy of All Who Sorrow" was arranged in the refectory in 1856. The ensemble is completed by a three-tiered bell tower with an open ringing tier. The base of the bell tower is reinforced with buttresses, and the entrance to the church is located on the side, from the south. The church is surrounded by a brick fence with decorative towers adorned with yellow trumpeting angels. Entrance to the territory is through the southern gates with wrought-iron gates. The church was hardly ever closed during the Soviet era.
