The earliest mention of Glazovo and its church dates back to 1586, during the reign of Tsar Fyodor Ioannovich. The documents state: "the village of Glazovo, and in it the church of Nicholas the Wonderworker, and in that same field, 10 chetvi of priestly arable land, and unplowed forest by the river Soti, one verst long, half a verst wide, in logs and in poles, 100 bundles of hay."

There are also mentions of the temple dated 1629 and 1630: "on patriarchal land, a burial place that was the village of Glazovo, and on the burial place, a wooden church of Nicholas, and in the church, icons and candles and books and vestments and bells and all kinds of church property for the parishioners, and on the church land in the yard: priest Danilo Yakovlev, deacon Provotorshka Ivanov, psalmist Ileyka Alekseev, prosphora-baker Mariytsa, in the cell, a beggar, arable church land of poor soil 5 chetvi and forest overgrown 10 chetvi, hay on the river Soti behind the Bragnikovsky meadow 50 bundles."

In 1810, a prince built a new stone church with a separate bell tower at his own expense. He decorated and equipped the temple with all necessary church property. In a petition to the Archbishop for the consecration of the church, he explained that his ancestors, the princes of Meshchersk, were buried here, and the old wooden church was already decaying and needed repairs.

The church was consecrated on September 25, 1810. The main altar was dedicated to the Resurrection of Christ, the right one to the Dormition of the Mother of God, and the left one to St. Peter of Athos, the heavenly patron of Peter Meshchersky. After the consecration of the church, an inventory of church property was compiled in the same year.

The stone church was cold and unheated. Its domes were covered with scales and painted green, the roof with shingles and red paint. The walls were plastered both outside and inside. Around the church stood a wooden lattice fence. There were wall paintings in the altars. The main iconostasis was four-tiered, while the other two were two-tiered, smooth, with columns and capitals, with gilded carvings. The inventory mentions various icons, vestments, books, and other church utensils. To the west of the church was the refectory. In winter, services were held in the wooden church, and in summer, in the stone one.

From 1888 to 1893, the dilapidated stone church fence was repaired, and iron grilles, gates, and wickets were installed. By 1890, there were three chapels in the villages of Posirovo, Kopninskoye, and Bragnikovo in the parish.

On November 9, 1893, under priest Peter Uspensky, a church-parish school was opened in a specially built two-story wooden house with an iron roof. The funds for construction were raised by the priest, and the building was insured for 1000 rubles with the Yaroslavl provincial zemstvo insurance company. This house also housed an apartment for the church watchman. Children from all surrounding villages and even from other parishes studied at the school. In 1905, there were 45 children studying there.

In 1895, the iconostasis was re-gilded, and all the holy icons and paintings in the summer church were updated. In 1899, painting was done in the winter church. In 1910, master Peter Kovalevsky painted the side chapels of the summer church.
