The Old Believers' Community in Mstera Sloboda was created in 1849. The first church on the northern outskirts of the settlement allocated to them was built by the Old Believers in 1852. It was the wooden Trinity Church in the Old Believers' cemetery. Soon, as the community grew, it was decided to build another church - a stone one. The construction of the brick building that has survived to this day dates back to 1884. A native of Mstera, the Vyaznikovsky 1st guild merchant Osip Osipovich Senkov donated a lot of money for the construction of this church. But it dragged on. 14 years passed. The decoration of the church was completed only in 1884 thanks to the efforts and large donations of the headman of the Old Believers' Church Ivan Yegorovich Mumrikov. He used his own funds to install a stone mosaic floor in the church, and he used his funds to make an iconostasis, which was painted by the best Mstera icon painters. In addition, the walls inside and outside were also painted and decorated.
