The village of Mosttsy is located 37 versts from Vladimir. The history of the local church dates back to the early 17th century. The patriarchal books from 1628 mention "the church of the miracle worker Nicholas in the village of Mosttsy," located in the estate of the widow Anna Ilyinichna Turova and the clerk Dmitry Ivanovich Zabolotsky. In the census books of 1645-1646 by Prince Grigory Shekhovsky, there are records of "the priest's yard, the deacon's yard, with 52 households in the parish" of this church. In 1702, Mosttsy is noted as "the estate of the widow of the chamberlain Ivan Volynsky, his wife Anna Mikhailovna." In this year, a new church was built, consecrated in the name of the Kazan Mother of God, with an altar dedicated to Nicholas the miracle worker. In 1703, the Vladimir census books mention: priest Mikhail, priest Nikifor, deacon Peter Nikiforov, and sexton Alexei Mikhailov. In 1710, priests Nikifor Danilov and Mikhail Danilov served at the Nikolsk and Kazan churches, respectively.

In 1721, the Kazan church burned down, and in 1723, a new wooden church was built on its site. At the request of the local priest, it was consecrated by the abbot of the Bogolyubovo Monastery, Avraamy, in the name of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, while the altar remained dedicated to Nicholas the miracle worker.

It is believed that this church stood until 1808, when, with the permission of Bishop Ksenofont of Vladimir, the construction of a stone church in Mosttsy began. The construction was completed in 1813, and the church was consecrated; simultaneously, a stone bell tower was erected. The church has three altars: in the cold part, in the name of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and in the warm altars, in the name of Saint Great Martyr Dimitri of Thessalonica and the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God. A wooden canopy is installed over the main altar in the cold church.

Church documents have been preserved in full: copies of the metric books since 1802, confession lists since 1829, except for the years 1830, 1833, 1836, 1847, and 1879, which are lost. The land associated with the church includes half a desyatina of estate land, 22 desyatinas of arable land, and 5 desyatinas of haymaking land. There is a plan for the land.

According to the statute, a priest and a psalmist are provided. The parish receives funds from interest on a capital of 100 rubles, income from services and rituals, bread collection, and land, totaling about 600 rubles per year. The parish houses are located on church land. The parish includes the village of Mosttsy and the villages of Kizhany, Suslovo, Istomino, and Mishnevo, where the clerical records list 719 men and 873 women.
