The Church of the Resurrection of Christ was built according to the design of the outstanding architect N.A. Lvov and is one of the most significant architectural monuments of the Vladimir region. It is located next to "Andreevsky" - the famous and well-preserved estate of the Counts Vorontsov and Vorontsov-Dashkov. The history of the church, the estate and its owners are closely intertwined. In 1628, a wooden church of the Resurrection of Christ, built "kletski", stood in the village.
Later granted by Naryshkin, the volost in 1701 passed from Ulyania Naryshkina to the steward A.F. Naryshkin (d. 1716). Then Matryonino was inherited by the daughter of Andrei Fedorovich, Marya (d. 1734). She was married to Count Alexei Mikhailovich Sheremetev.
Then the village was owned by Ivan Mikhailovich Surmin, whose only daughter Marfa was married to Roman Vorontsov in 1735, and he received the entire estate of Surmin as a dowry, including the Matryoninskaya volost. His son Alexander Romanovich Vorontsov began to build a stone church in 1796, which still exists today.
The new church was probably built according to the design of the architect Nikolai Alexandrovich Lvov, one of the greatest representatives of Russian culture of the late 18th - early 19th centuries, an architect, artist, poet, archaeologist, geologist, and inventor. He had warm friendly relations with Alexander Romanovich Vorontsov, he sent Vorontsov copies of all his projects, wrote about significant events in his life, Vorontsov's Moscow house was built according to Lvov's design, Lvov supervised the decoration of the Vorontsov mansion in St. Petersburg, and participated in the creation of the Vorontsov estates of Murino near St. Petersburg and Voronovo near Moscow.
There are several versions of Lvov's involvement in the Resurrection Church in Matryonino, but according to the "official" version at the moment, the author of the church project is a certain Pyotr Ivanovich Shchetinin, and it was completed under the leadership of the prominent capital architect Francesco Camporesi. The construction of the bell tower was carried out by the serf architect Dmitry Kirillov, who was listed as an architectural student in 1793.
The new church was erected according to the project, in two floors. The church, the height of which is 42 meters, was built in the then dominant classicism style.
