The masonry church was built in 1904–1907 with funds from Russian merchants and local Orthodox residents to replace an earlier one that had fallen into ruin; the village was then part of the Kingdom of Poland within the Russian Empire, and the parish belonged to the Russian Orthodox Church. According to Polish Wikipedia, it was designed by the eparchial architect Vladimir Pokrovsky and consecrated on 16 August 1907. The church was closed in 1915–1918 while the residents were evacuated; today it is a parish church of the Terespol deanery.

Каменная церковь построена в 1904–1907 годах на средства русских купцов и местных православных жителей взамен разрушившейся прежней; село тогда входило в Царство Польское в составе Российской империи, приход относился к Русской православной церкви. По данным польской Википедии, проект составил епархиальный архитектор Владимир Покровский, а освящение состоялось 16 августа 1907 года. В 1915–1918 годах, когда жители находились в эвакуации, храм не действовал; сегодня это приходская церковь Тереспольского благочиния.
