The history of the formation of Cherdakly dates back to the 17th century. The settlement of Cherdakly was founded in 1688 by Tatar servicemen. In 1699, after the establishment of the village of Urenbash, the Cherdakly Tatars appealed to the great sovereign for resettlement, and their request was granted. The freed lands were occupied by 97 foreigners. Over time, Cherdakly became Russian in ethnic composition and Orthodox in faith.

Despite this, as archival documents show, for a long time there was no church in the settlement. Only in 1780 did an Orthodox church in honor of the Intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary open in the village of Cherdakly.

In 1889, the church community of Cherdakly requested the construction of a new stone church for 1,100 people due to the overcrowding of the old wooden one. The construction lasted six years, and on September 20, 1895, a new two-altar stone church in honor of the Intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary and Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker was consecrated.

In 1910, a project for another stone church in honor of Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker was developed, but the 1917 revolution and the subsequent civil war prevented these plans from being realized.

On April 10, 1937, the Intercession Church was closed and remained closed for 21 years. In 1958, despite protests from believers, the church was demolished. To obtain permission for the demolition, it was reported that cracks had appeared in the building, and to confirm this, thick ropes were lowered from the domes and photographs were taken. The graves on the church grounds were destroyed and desecrated.

In 1990, an Orthodox religious community was established in the urban-type settlement of Cherdakly. At its request, the village administration allocated the former priest's house, which had previously housed a hotel, for the church.

On November 21, 1991, the first Divine Liturgy was held in the revived church. The first rector was Archpriest Nikolai Gumeniuk, who contributed to the revival of Orthodox life in the settlement. An altar and a bell tower were added to the main building of the former priest's house.

On October 28, 2001, Archbishop Prokl of Simbirsk and Melekess solemnly consecrated the altar of the church in honor of the Intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
