Around Borovsk, a whole reserve of early 18th-century architecture has naturally formed, where remarkable yet undeservedly forgotten monuments have been preserved. One such place is the village of Uvarovsk. Initially, it belonged to the Uvarovs in the 15th century, and in the 17th century, its owner was the grandmother of Emperor Peter I, the noblewoman A.L. Naryshkina. In the mid-17th century, a wooden church was restored here, which had been destroyed during the Time of Troubles. In the early 18th century, Uvarovsk became the estate of the steward M.F. Filosofov, who built a stone church in the name of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary on the site of the old wooden church, with an altar dedicated to St. Nicholas the Wonderworker. The construction was completed by the end of 1702.

Later, in the same 18th century and until the revolution, the estate was owned by the Postnikov nobles. Only the regular park from the late 18th century and the church of the Presentation from 1702 have survived from their estate. The church, although small, impresses with its seriousness and significance. Its architecture is executed in the traditional style: "an octagon on a square" with rich brick and white stone decor in the style of Moscow Baroque from the late 17th to early 18th centuries. The bell tower and refectory, built at the same time, are aligned with the church. Despite the typical details, the church possesses a unique character and expressiveness. The decoration of the apse is particularly noteworthy, which, despite familiar elements, creates an impression of unusual rarity.

In 1930, the church was closed. After the war, it partially collapsed: the Kalinin collective farm dismantled it for bricks. The bell tower, southern altar, sanctuary, and refectory were destroyed. The church is now in a semi-ruined state, with only the main volume, "an octagon on a square," and the first tier of the bell tower remaining. The base of the bell tower is beyond restoration, but the "octagon on a square" is in good condition and can still be saved. Local residents have brought several icons to the church and hold services there.

The church is located above ponds formed by the Uvarovka River. Behind it lies an ancient park, which has suffered greatly, but its layout is still discernible: the coastal part, squares of alleys with fruit trees. Beyond the park stretch fields with roads. One of them, leading to Borovsk, was a postal tract along which Napoleon's army moved to Maloyaroslavets in the autumn of 1812.

Since 2011, Andrey Fyodorovich Polushkin has been engaged in the restoration of the church. The outer part of the altar made of red bricks has already been restored, and work is currently underway inside the altar. Funds are needed to restore the bell tower, southern altar, and refectory. With the collected money, seven windows were installed on September 14, 2018.
