The Church of the Nativity of John the Baptist stands as a red brick structure with distinctive architectural elements along the river banks.

The temple was established during the late 17th century, marking a transition from wooden to stone construction in Russian religious architecture.

The church maintains regular liturgical services with Metropolitan Anthony of Volokolamsk leading spiritual gatherings and community activities.

The building contains Empire-style iconostases documented in the inventory of 1861, which underwent restoration work in 1892.

The church features underground passages from 19th-century quartz mining operations, requiring special foundation reinforcement during the 1980s.
