A stone church was erected on the site of the old wooden church of St. Nikita the Great Martyr (built in 1731) in 1812-1814, and completed, due to the fall of the dome, in 1820.

For two years, the team of the farm in the village of Yurievo-Devichye has been carrying out restoration work to revive the ruined shrine, a once majestic temple with a bell tower. The local population takes an active part in this.

Prayer is offered here every Friday.
