The Resurrection Church is located on the territory of the now-vanished village of Mikhalkovo, which has been known since the end of the 15th century and existed until the middle of the 20th century. For more than four centuries, Mikhalkovo was the homestead of the old Vladimir noble family of the Karyakins.
In 1815, at the expense of the landowners Karyakins, the construction of a stone refectory was completed, and in 1826, the present church. In 1866, at the expense of the parishioners, the refectory was expanded. The bell tower at the church is stone.
Now this is a churchyard not far from the village of Nesterkovo next to the SNT "Agrokhimik", where among the thickets of birch and linden growth rises the abandoned Resurrection Church built by the Karyakins in honor of the victory over Napoleon, above the three-tiered bell tower of which a lopsided spire has miraculously survived to this day. Nearby there is an ancient cemetery, where historical monuments have survived, including those of representatives of the Karyakin family.
