The Church of Our Lady of Kazan in the village of Ivanisovo was built in 1825-1838 on the site of the wooden Church of Archangel Michael. The temple stands on the eastern outskirts of the village, where the cemetery is located, but judging by the imposing appearance, oriented towards the capital's architecture. The Kazan Church was not always a cemetery church. And the village of Ivanisovo itself has a rich history. The earliest mention of a village with a wooden church in the name of Archangel Michael "on the churchyard on the Ramenka River" dates back to 1627-28. From the end of the 16th century, these lands were part of the patrimony of the Sheremetev boyars, in the 17th century the village passed to the Odoevskys, in the 18th - 19th centuries. Ivanisovo was owned in turn by I.P. Tolstoy, N.M. Golitsyn, V.A. Vsevolozhsky, A.A. Dolgorukov, A.I. Aduevsky, A.I. Ushakov - all famous people. The surviving stone church of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God in Ivanisovo was built in 1824-1838. According to the book "Bogorodskie Shrines", the construction was carried out at their own expense by famous participants in the Patriotic War of 1812, Lieutenant General Nikolai Martemyanovich Sipyagin and Lieutenant General Vasily Dmitrievich Ilovaisky. N.M. Sipyagin was married to Maria Vsevolodovna Vsevolozhskaya - the daughter of a wealthy landowner in the Bogorodsky district. As a dowry, General Sipyagin, in particular, received the Vsevolozhsky porcelain factory in the village of Elizavetino, four versts from Ivanisovo. Another famous commander of the Patriotic War of 1812, Vasily Dmitrievich Ilovaisky, acquired Ivanisovo itself and several surrounding villages in 1832.
