The Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary Church in the village of Yakunkino, built of stone along with a bell tower, was erected in 1854 through the efforts of parishioners and with the support of benefactors. The fence around the church is also made of stone. There is a cemetery on the church grounds. The church has three altars: in honor of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Venerable Macarius of Unzha, and Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker.
