The wooden church, clad in larch, was built between 1881 and 1886 with funds from local residents in honor of Emperor Alexander II. Materials from the previous Floro-Lavra church, erected in the 18th century, were used for construction.

The main building was topped with a low octagonal structure featuring a decorative five-domed roof. An altar adjoined it on the eastern side, while a refectory was on the western side, which housed the chapels of the prophet Zechariah (1890) and Flora and Lavra (1895). In the main church, the Blagoveshchensk altar and the chapels of Varlaam of Khutyn (1897) and the Nativity of the Virgin (1897) were arranged in a single row.

In 1929, the Bolsheviks closed the Alexander Nevsky church and converted it into a club, which still operates today.

The main elements have been preserved: the entrance porch, facades with pilasters, cladding, and all window openings, including the paired ones on the main volume, as well as parts of the eastern wall up to the altar porch. The porch itself was removed, and a large extension was built in its place. The domes were replaced with a gabled slate roof.
