In the watch book of Prince Zvenigorodsky from 1615, it is mentioned that a cemetery with a wooden warm church dedicated to Alexius the Man of God was rebuilt in the Verkhovsky stan on Sovye Ramenye.
According to the inventory book of Domozhirova from 1629, there was a church in the same place in the name of Alexius the Man of God.
In 1631, a new church was built, consecrated on March 12, 1637, in honor of Saint Alexius the Man of God. By 1662, there were two wooden churches in the village.
Around 1685, the wooden Alexius church fell into disrepair, and the Most Reverend Bishop of Vyatka and Great Perm, Jonah, allowed the dismantling of part of the old church and the construction of a new cold one.
At the same time, the construction of a warm church began, which lasted about seven years, and it was consecrated in 1689.
When this church also became dilapidated, a third wooden church was built.
By 1765, there were two wooden churches in the village: a warm one and a cold one, both in the name of Saint Alexius the Man of God, with the cold one being "extremely dilapidated." In its place, according to the church foundation decree from March 12, 1765, issued by the Most Reverend Bishop of Vyatka and Great Perm, Bartholomew, it was permitted to build a stone church and dismantle the old one.
In the new stone temple, two altars were arranged: in the cold church, in the name of the Not Made by Hands Image of the Savior, consecrated on October 5, 1781, and in the warm church, in honor of Saint Blessed Alexius the Man of God, consecrated in 1772.
In 1890, the warm church was reconstructed and expanded. The temple now had three altars: a cold one for the Savior, a warm right one for Alexius, and a warm left one in honor of the Assembly of the Most Holy Theotokos, consecrated on December 10, 1895.
