The first mentions of the Nikolskaya Church in Vasutino date back to 1585. In the wooden church, on the churchyard, a six-tiered iconostasis with icons of ancient writing was arranged. According to legend, the church on this site was once founded by Sergius of Radonezh. In 1787, a stone church with an aisle in the name of Sergius of Radonezh was erected on the site of the dilapidated church.

The two-story quadrangle of the church is topped with an octagon. A single-aisle refectory connects the church with a bell tower with a square base. Before the destruction of the Nikolskaya Church in 1937, it contained many holy relics, including the altar Gospel of 1654 and a reliquary cross with particles of the relics of St. the First Martyr. Archdeacon Stephen, Great Martyr Theodore Tiron and Martyr Basil of Ancyra. In December 1863, Emperor Alexander II visited the church, and St. Righteous John of Kronstadt also prayed in it.
