The village of Aleksandrovo on the Vysokaya River is located 15 km from Sudogda and 27 km from Vladimir. Until 1764, the village of Aleksandrovo with its parish villages belonged to the Vladimir Nativity Monastery. The villages and pochinoks (pochinok is the name of the emerging rural settlement), which later formed the Aleksandrovsky parish, were granted to the monastery by Grand Duke Vasily Ivanovich in 1505. The church in the village of Aleksandrovo was built in the early 17th century; from the time the church was built, the village of Goriglyadovo began to be called the village of Aleksandrovo, as it belonged to the monastery, where the relics of the holy blessed prince Alexander Nevsky rest.
.These wooden churches existed in Aleksandrovo until the end of the 18th century. In 1794-1799, a stone church was built here.
