The church dedicated to the icon of the Mother of God 'Joy of All Who Sorrow' was built on the site of a wooden church that appeared in 1900 from a chapel founded in 1866. Construction lasted from 1900 to 1903 and was financed by donations from the Maltsev Society. In 1903, the church was consecrated in the name of St. Nicholas, Archbishop of Myra in Lycia. The church housed a miraculous icon of the Mother of God 'Joy of All Who Sorrow,' painted on a solid tin sheet. On a golden background, the Most Holy Virgin Mary was depicted in full height with outstretched arms, reaching out to the sick around her. Currently, the icon is lost. After the Bolshevik Revolution, the church was closed and partially destroyed. In 1991, restoration work began, and in 1995, the church was consecrated by the archpriest Alexander Kozlov, the dean of the Bryansk district, in honor of the icon of the Mother of God 'Joy of All Who Sorrow.'
