The Assumption Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Veshnyaki was built between 1644 and 1646. The temple was erected by Fyodor Ivanovich Sheremetev, who held significant positions in the Russian government at the time, near the Kuskovo estate.

Instead of a dome, the church building is adorned with a tent-like roof. A few years after the completion of construction, it was decided to add symmetrical chapels to the church, also topped with tent roofs, to maintain a unified architectural style.

The main altar of the upper church was consecrated in honor of the feast of the Resurrection of Christ. The southern chapel was dedicated to Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker, the northern to the prophet Elijah, and the adjoining chapel to the holy martyr Tatiana.

In 1880, a railway was laid near the church, leading to the emergence of a large suburban settlement, Veshnyaki. Thus, the Assumption Church became the main temple in the area.

The old parish cemetery surrounding the church serves as a burial place for residents of nearby villages: Kuskovo, Veshnyakovo, Vykhino, and Vyazovka.

In 1922, the Bolsheviks looted the church, and rare icons and some interior elements disappeared. However, the church was only closed in 1940. During the war, a repair workshop was placed in its building, but services resumed in 1947.

Today, the Assumption Church in Veshnyaki remains a significant place for residents of the surrounding areas.
