The first documentary evidence of the church of the Assumption Pogost is found in the patriarchal tax books; under 1628 it is noted: "the Church of the Assumption of the Most Holy Theotokos in the patrimony of the boyar Prince F.I. Mstislavsky (16th century - 1622) Princess Irina in Yaropolch on the Suvorshchy River." The Assumption Church is named in the patriarchal tax books until 1746, and only in one document from 1730 is the Trinity Church of the Assumption Pogost named. But from the inscription on the altar Gospel preserved in the church, it is clear that already in 1664 there was another Church of the Holy Trinity in the churchyard. Whether it was a separate church or an aisle at the Assumption Church is not clear from the inscription. In fact, since ancient times, there was a stone church of the Holy Trinity with a chapel in the name of the Dormition of the Mother of God at the churchyard. There is no information about when and by whom this church was built.
In 1826, construction of a cold stone Dormition Church began next to the warm Trinity Church. In 1838, the church was built. Rimskaya-Korsakova Alexandra Alexandrovna (1803-1860) - one of the daughters of the Vyaznikovsky landowners Korsakov, who owned the village of Borodino, Vyaznikovsky uzd and built a church in the Uspensky Pogost.
A stone bell tower was built at the Trinity Church in 1860.
