The village of Astradamovka, located in the Astradamov volost of the Alatyr district by the Yakla River, is first mentioned in documents from 1647. There is a legend about the founding of the village, according to which it was settled by migrants, runaway serfs, Poles, and Don Cossacks. Therefore, the surnames Polyakov and Kazakov are still found in the village.

There is no consensus on the origin of the village's name. According to one version, the lands on which Astradamovka later arose were granted to the landowner Astradamova, who was allowed to catch runaways and settle these places. Another version suggests that the name is related to frequent attacks by bandits, which caused travelers to suffer when passing through the village.

The last owner of Astradamovka was Varvara Petrovna Bibikova, who owned 1,003 serf men in 1860. In 1807, the peasants built a stone church surrounded by a wooden fence, and nearby they erected a wooden chapel in the square. Later, two more churches were built in the village, along with a 4-class urban school, a reception room, a volost administration, and a post and telegraph office.

In the 1970s, the bell tower was dismantled, leaving only traces of its foundation. During the Soviet era, the church building was used as the Astradamov Cultural House.
