History:

In the summer of 1862, services began in a prayer house, temporarily equipped in one of the huts. In the spring of 1863, the parishioners built at their own expense a real church, made of wood with one altar. The consecration of the temple took place in the same year - forty days after Easter, on the day of the Ascension of the Lord. The first Church of the Ascension in the village of Nikolskoye operated until 1907. In 1909, the old wooden church, which stood about 26 meters from the new stone one, was dismantled and, according to tradition, firewood was used for the needs of the temple itself. Construction work on the foundation began on April 30, 1899. By 1903, the main building of the new stone church was completed with masonry: “The church and the meal are folded. The rafters are set up and lined. " But there were still difficulties, as the same report admits: "The bell tower was not reported for lack of funds." However, in the next two or three years, the bell tower was nevertheless completed. Moreover, the main bell weighing 170 pounds was ordered at the Sarapul bell factory of Mikhail Ivanovich Ryabinin. The consecration of the main throne of the Church of the Ascension of the Lord in the village of Nikolskoye took place on May 30, 1907. After the consecration of the high altar, the interior decoration work continued for several years.
