The first documented mention of a church in this place dates back to 1638. By 1656, the landowners Pyotr and Mikhail Bashev built a new church on the empty land in the name of the Intercession of the Holy Mother of God, which is why the churchyard was named Pokrovo-Bashevsky.
In 1764, the church burned down. A year later, a new wooden church was built here instead. The Pokrovsky parish was very large and included dozens of villages. On the patronal feast day, large fairs were held around the pond near the church.
