The construction of the church began in 1714 and was completed in 1723. This is a unique piece of stone architecture of XVIII, not very common for the area during the reign of Peter the Great. In late 1960s, the Soviet state appropriated the building as a local planetarium. In 1994 it was returned to the Russian Orthodox Diocese.
