The church was built in 1789 with funds from the parishioners on the site of a wooden church from the 17th century. It is a five-domed stone church with a tiered bell tower, intended for summer services, with a winter chapel. The church has two altars: one in honor of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and the other in honor of Saint Nicholas, Archbishop of Myra in Lycia, the miracle worker.
During the Soviet era, the building was used as a warehouse. Now the church is gradually falling into disrepair, but despite this, the frescoes on the walls continue to impress and delight the eye.
