      • The church was consecrated by Patriarch Joachim in 1678-1679; it was built by a guild of Kostroma architects.
      • It stood in the New Quarter, where peasants from various districts were resettled to serve the royal estate.
      • The three iconostases of 1678 were created by the Kostroma master Sergei Rozhkov.
      • The church never closed in Soviet times; in 1945 the future Archimandrite John (Krestiankin) was ordained here.
