The Temple of St. Seraphim of Sarov began its activities on July 31, 2010. The sketch project was developed at the request and based on an agreement with the rector, Archpriest Vasily Petrov, and is designed for 500 parishioners. The architecture of the temple is executed in the traditions of the Pskov school of architecture of the 14th-16th centuries.

The parish of the temple dedicated to St. Seraphim of Sarov was founded in 2004 for the residents of the Terepets microdistrict in Kaluga. From January 2005, according to the order of the city mayor and an agreement on gratuitous indefinite use, the parish occupied the utility block of the kindergarten "Lesnaya Skazka" at 13 Enthusiasts Boulevard. In July 2006, a plot of land measuring 35 hundredths was allocated to the parish for the construction of the temple.

In November 2008, the foundation of the temple was laid on this plot, and a fence was installed along the boundary of the plot. During 2009-2010, the walls were erected, the roof was made, and the interior finishing was completed.

The building of the temple has an elongated shape from west to east due to the developed western entrance part. The main volume, square in plan measuring 10.4x10.4 meters, is covered with an eight-pitched roof and topped with a single dome on a high light drum, which rests on a decorative octagonal pedestal. To the east, it is adjoined by a three-part altar apse with a three-lobed outline in plan. On the western side, a large narthex adjoins the main volume, almost the entire width of it, above which is a small bell tower. Access to the bell tower is via a ladder from the choir, which is also located above the western narthex. The bell tower is topped with a stylized gable roof. Behind the narthex is an open western porch of the main entrance with a wide staircase with two flights, north and south. Side entrances to the temple are also decorated with porches with developed staircases, and a ramp for wheelchairs is provided from the south. On the northern side, a chapel in the form of a small temple with a separate altar apse and a light dome adjoins the church. The temple is located on a basement level for utility purposes, accessible via stairs leading to the street, one from the north side, the other from the south. The height of the basement floor is 3 meters.

The walls of the temple are made of brick, three bricks thick, decorated with flat pilasters with multi-lobed curves at the top. Window openings are recessed into decorative niches and finished with eyebrows. The facade decoration features elements of the Pskov architectural school: patterned belts under the drum and apse cornices, complex-profile cornices, arcatures, "creeping" arches on round columns, slit windows with triangular eyebrows, and others. The walls are covered with lime plaster and painted white. Wooden elements are made of coniferous species, treated with penotex, metal parts are made of brass, and the grilles are forged, painted in silver and black colors. The porches, stairs, and ramp are faced with granite slabs.

The interior of the temple is decorated with a marble or granite colored floor and white plastered walls. The main volume is covered with a system of vaults with an opening in the center for the light drum, allowing for the absence of intermediate supports. The iconostasis is made in the form of a low altar barrier made of wood. Above the main entrance to the temple is an icon of St. Seraphim of Sarov, made in mosaic or fresco technique. The dome and roof are copper, painted, and the crosses are covered with gilded leaf.
