In 1827, a wooden church was built and consecrated in honor of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God at the site of the current monastery. The church owned two desyatinas of land. Archives from St. Petersburg indicate that a Sunday school operated at the church. The Kazan church stood until 1926, when, by order of the local authorities, it was partially destroyed and repurposed as a rural school. During the Great Patriotic War, during the German occupation, the building was used as headquarters, a dining hall, and a stable. After the war, it became a rural school again.

In 1992, a new school was built in the village of Bolshenyeushovo, and the old school building was handed over to the Kursk Diocese for use as a church. In 1996, Archimandrite Hippolyt (Khalin), the abbot of the Rylsk Holy Nicholas Men's Monastery, appealed to the Kursk Diocese for permission to reconstruct the school building for a parish church and to establish a women's skete. After receiving the blessing of Metropolitan Juvenaly (Tarasov), Archimandrite Hippolyt, along with the first inhabitants of the skete, with the support of benefactors and pilgrims, began restoration work. Soon the church building was repaired, the territory was arranged, and an economy was organized.
