The village of Zubovka, previously known as Uspenskoe, was transferred in 1769 by Empress Catherine II to Alexander Nikolaevich Zubov, the father of her favorite Platon Zubov. After Alexander Zubov's death, the village was inherited by his elder son Nikolai Alexandrovich Zubov, who was married to Natalia Alexandrovna Suvorova, the daughter of Generalissimo A.V. Suvorov.

In 1799, Natalia Alexandrovna Zubova initiated the construction of a wooden church dedicated to Archangel Michael in the village. The church was cross-shaped in plan, with a main volume in the form of a square, an altar, and a refectory. To the north and south were three-walled log cabins. Above the central part rose an octagonal structure with an iron dome topped with a cross. The bell tower had three tiers and was crowned with a dome and spire. In 1841, the church was renovated.

In the 19th century, a wooden church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary was built in Zubovka, half a verst from the Church of Archangel Michael. It resembled the first church but had windows in the dome and was not heated, serving as a summer church. In the late 19th century, around 1893, the Assumption Church burned down, and a wooden chapel was erected in its place.

In the late 1890s, a new stone Assumption Church was built in Zubovka in the style of tent churches of the 17th century.

In the 1920s, both churches and the chapel in the village were destroyed. On the site of the Assumption Church, a club was built, which later burned down, and now there is a wasteland.
