The village of Pyangus is located 20 versts from the district town and 125 versts from the provincial capital, near an unnamed swamp. In the past, the village and its surrounding villages were part of the palace Unzhenskaya volost and, like the Kudrinsky parish, belong to relatively recent settlements in the region.

The first church in Pyangus was built in 1715, and a separate parish was established at that time. A priest, deacon, sexton, and prosphora baker were appointed to serve the church. The peasants allocated arable land and hayfields for their maintenance.

In 1783, the church was rebuilt, and this wooden structure has survived to this day. The church has two altars: the main one is dedicated to St. Sergius of Radonezh, and in the refectory, to the Great Martyr Dmitry of Solun. The church is modest in furnishings and icons, but notable are the ancient linden wreaths depicting the Savior, Adam, and Eve.

The parish includes the village of Pyangus and the villages of Dvoezer, Dmitriev, Kamenok, Milydeva, Timoshkina, and Pichugina, where 1,457 men and 1,513 women live, including 193 men and 248 women who are Old Believers.

Since 1888, a church parish school has been operating in the village, with 33 students enrolled in 1896. In 1910, a new church was built in the Russian-Byzantine style from red brick, which has partially survived to this day. However, the village itself has disappeared, and the church has been destroyed.

The old wooden church was transported to Murom to the territory of the Trinity Women's Monastery as part of a planned museification. Now, with the monastery in operation, the church from Pyangus is in use, and a tented canopy has recently been added to the western entrance.
