The history of the village of Telyachye goes back to a distant past. It is first mentioned in the documents of the Belevsky district in 1584 as the estate village of the boyars Bezobrazov. In the land books of 1630 and 1632 of the Rutskiy stan of Belevsky district, it is stated: "Behind Ilya and Vasily, the children of Kuzmin Bezobrazov, in the estate village of Telyachye above the Telych Kolodez, there is the estate of the landowners and the estate of the clerk Nikitka Dmitriev..." Next to the estate land of Ilya and Vasily Bezobrazov stood the Church of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker on state land, built by priest Prokhor, where priest Prokhor Nikitin, deacon Senka Timofeev, and sexton Ivashka Vasilyev served.

Since 1778, the village was part of the Deshkinsky district, and after its abolition in 1797, it became part of the Mtsensky district. The Bezobrazov boyars, the owners of Telyachye, left a significant mark in the history of Russia. In 1749, Avdotya Alexeyevna Glebova, daughter of the adjutant of Count Golovin, Alexey Grigorievich Bezobrazov, sold the village of Telyachye along with the villages of Bragina, Rybin, Deshkina, and Utkin to collegiate councilor Vladimir Fedorovich Sheremetev. Later, the estate passed to his son, captain-lieutenant Alexander Vladimirovich. After his death, his widow Elena Vasilievna (née Golitsyna) began the construction of a stone church in the village of Telyachye, which was consecrated in 1812. Local historian R. M. Alexina suggests that Ivan Ivanovich Lutovinov with his niece Varvara Petrovna attended the consecration.

In 1883, the priest of the church in the village of Telyachye became Peter Voznesensky, a graduate of the Oryol Theological Seminary. He served for a long time in the Nikolsky church and was respected by the parishioners. In 1897, he was appointed assistant to the dean of the 3rd section of the Mtsensky district. On February 3, 1915, he was awarded the Order of St. Anna of the 3rd degree. As a law teacher in the church-parish schools opened in 1887 in Telyachye and Bragina, he paid great attention to teaching the Law of God.

The church was the center of the Nikolsky parish, which included the village of Telyachye and the villages of Bragina, Kakurenkovo, Karandakovo, and Rybin. On June 9, 1893, the church was visited by the Bishop of Oryol and Sevsk Misael (Krylov). It was noted that the Nikolsky church of the village of Telyachye, made of stone, with a similar bell tower and fence, was spacious and well-equipped. The parish had 1,340 male souls, and there were 63 desyatinas of land by the church.

On June 28, 1910, the church was visited by Bishop Alexander (Golovin), and on June 8, 1911, by Bishop Grigory (Vakhnin). On May 7, 1914, the parishioners of the Nikolsky church welcomed pilgrims from the Pokrovsk church of Bolkhov, who were making a pilgrimage to Mtsensk. On June 27 of the same year, members of the Oryol Church Archaeological Society visited the village. They spent the night at Father Peter's and inspected the church, which housed icons from the Western school of painting. In the old house of the Sheremetevs, they saw many ancient paintings and portraits of the Sheremetev family members. Vasily Vasilievich Sheremetev was the church elder of the Nikolsky church for a long time.

According to the memories of the locals, the church was closed in the early 1930s. First, the dome was removed for melting, and then it was destroyed to the foundation.

In 2009, the revival of the Nikolsky church began. In 2010, the community was given the building of a store built in 1967 on the site of the former church. In 2011, a bell tower was erected in three months, and in the summer of 2012, the church was adorned with a gilded dome.
