The village of Chmiel has existed since 1502. The first mention of an Orthodox church in the village dates back to 1584. A second wooden church was built (probably on the site of the old one) in 1795. It existed until 1904. The current church was built in 1906. After the war, the village found itself within the borders of the Soviet Union, but in 1951, as a result of the straightening of the borders, it returned to Poland. However, the residents did not return. The abandoned church began to fall into disrepair. In the 1960s, it was turned into a warehouse. In 1969, it was recovered and converted into a church.

Next to the church, under a roof, there is a tombstone of Fieronia Orlicka, who died in 1644. She was originally buried in the church, but after it was demolished and another one was built, it ended up outside it. Partially covered with earth, it has survived to this day. In 2011 it was exposed. The roof under which it is located is a copy of the upper part of the former church bell tower.
