The Transfiguration Church in the village of Smolnevo is called one of the most original Baroque monuments in the Vladimir region and one of the best churches of the Anna Baroque in the Russian provinces.
In Smolnevo, in the first quarter of the 17th century, there was complete desolation and it continued until the village became the property of Adjutant General Semyon Andreyevich Saltykov (1677-1742) in 1715. After Anna Ioannovna, whose relative Semyon Saltykov was, came to power, the general swore allegiance to her. By the way, the new empress ordered the guard to obey only Saltykov, gifting the loyal servant with eight hundred peasant households in different districts of Russia. The construction of a stone church in the village of Smolnevo near Kirzhach in the Vladimir province to replace the old wooden church lasted a little over four decades and was completed around 1780. The stone church was started in 1736 by the general's son, Count Vladimir Semenovich Saltykov (1705-1751). It was completed by his grandson, Sergei Vladimirovich (1739-1800).
