    Until the beginning of the 18th century, it was a royal patrimony, and in 1709, Emperor Peter the Great presented the village to his friend and associate Field Marshal General Anikita Ivanovich Repnin, for the victory at Poltava. It was Prince Repnin who laid the largest of the four Great Village churches, the Church of the Nativity of the Virgin, 300 years ago. The main decoration of the village is an architectural ensemble consisting of two churches of the beginning of the XVIII century of the Nativity of the Virgin, the Intercession of the Virgin and the bell tower between them. The pearl of the village is the estate of merchant Lokalov, whose main mansion was built in pseudo–Russian style, decorated with turrets, weathervanes and surrounded by a magnificent wrought-iron fence
