The Spas-Kupalishche churchyard is located at the confluence of the Sudogda and Klyazma rivers and is located 22 km north of Sudogda and 27 km from Vladimir. It is known from the chronicles that the founder of the Bogolyubsky Monastery, the faithful Grand Duke Andrei Bogolyubsky, came here to hunt and rest. But the chronicles are silent about the construction of a temple in these places. There is information that the first wooden church in the churchyard, according to legend, appeared only during the time of Tsar Ivan the Terrible (1560s), when the formidable ruler was returning with his squad from the third Kazan campaign, sailing on barges along the then still full-flowing Klyazma River. As the legend says, the tsar gave the order to lay the foundation of a wooden church in such a beautiful place at the place of his rest and bathing in the Klyazma River. While swimming, he began to drown and was miraculously saved, in honor of which a wooden temple was built.
