In the mid-18th century, the village was part of the Tsarekurgan sloboda of the Yalutorovsky district, and from 1782, after the formation of volosts, it became the center of the Vvedenskaya volost. By the end of the 19th century, Vvedenskoe had become a suburban village, where many residents did not engage in agriculture but preferred crafts such as making felt boots, selling coal, producing boxes and shovels, as well as transporting firewood and other materials to Kurgan and factories. A significant portion of the population worked at the factories of Kurgan merchants, receiving monthly wages. The village hosted the Vvedenskaya fair, and an annual market was held on the ninth Friday after Easter in honor of the icon of Saint Martyr Paraskeva, attracting many pilgrims.
The exact date of the construction of the first church in the village is unknown, but documents from 1781 mention the Vvedenskaya church of the Chernovsky village. In 1827, a new wooden church was built in its place in the name of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary. In the 1840s, peasant Ivan Tikhomirov and artist Chernyshev created a new iconostasis for the church, while the old one was moved to the refectory.
By the end of the 19th century, the church had become dilapidated and could not accommodate all the parishioners and pilgrims eager to venerate the miraculous icon of Paraskeva Friday. The parishioners requested the construction of a new church. On March 27, 1891, a decree was issued for the construction of a stone church, which was laid on April 20, 1894, according to the project by architect Bogdan Tsinke.
Thanks to the efforts of merchant Alexander Balakshin, construction progressed quickly. The stonework and finishing were completed in three years by contractor Malyshev. In 1897, an iconostasis from the old church was installed in the northern chapel in honor of Saint Paraskeva Friday, and it was consecrated on September 16. From that time, services began in the new church.
On January 30, 1898, priest Dmitry Kuznetsov consecrated the main altar of the church in the name of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and on October 5 of the same year, the third altar in the name of Saint Righteous Simeon of Verkhoturye was consecrated.
In 1902, the old wooden church with the iconostasis from the refectory was transported to the village of Sycheva of the Vvedensky parish.
In 1897, the parish of the Vvedenskaya church included the villages: Sycheva, Zaykova, Silkina, Staro-Sidorova, Novo-Sidorova, Ostrovnaya, and the settlement of Zamaraysky. By 1913, it had reduced to the villages: Staro-Sidorova, Novo-Sidorova, Zaykova, Silkina, Ostrovnaya.
In 1956, the Vvedensky church was in a neglected state and was deteriorating, so by the decision of the Ketyvsky district executive committee, its premises were transferred to the Kurgan consumer society for the establishment of a tea room and a grocery store.
