The Resurrection Church was originally built in the late first quarter of the 18th century on the site of a former chapel, erected in honor of the meeting of the icon of Saint Herman with parts of his relics. Initially, the church had three altars, two of which were located in the refectory chapels. In 1877 and 1879, the main part of the temple was rebuilt, and two new chapels were added, making the church five-altar.
In 1890 and 1894, reconstruction work was carried out on the refectory part of the church and the bell tower, during which the refectory chapels were abolished. These changes were made with funds from the church, parishioners, and church elder, merchant Pavel Andreyevich Nikitin.
Currently, the church has three altars: the main one is dedicated to the renewal of the Church of the Resurrection of Christ, the right chapel is dedicated to Saint Herman, Archbishop of Kazan, and the left one is dedicated to Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker.
There is a chapel in the fair square belonging to the church.
The church parish school has been in existence since 1897 and is located in its own building.
