One of the richest and most fertile lands in Dmitrovsky district was considered Obolyanovskaya volost . No wonder these places were looked after by the well-known noble families of the Olsufievs, Podyachevs, Golitsins. Luxurious estates, gold-domed churches, factories and mills, taverns and parish schools were built here.

First, in 1631, in the village of Novokartsevo (Novaya, Berezhki, Novlyanskoye, Novoe, Novo-Kartsevo), owned by Bogdan Nikitich Dubrovsky, there was a wooden church in honor of the Protection of the Most Holy Theotokos. The construction of the stone church of the same name was started by the new owner of the village Pyotr Andreevich Tolstoy at the beginning of the 17th century, but was soon interrupted in connection with the decree of Peter I on the prohibition of "stone building outside St. Petersburg." However, at the request of the customer in 1717 the temple was completed. A chapel was arranged in the temple in honor of the Nativity of Christ. In the first half of the XIX century. a stone belfry was attached. One of the maples, which is more than a hundred years old, still makes noise around the church with its mighty branches.

After the death of the priest in 1918, the temple was closed. In the early 1920s, church property was expropriated. The premises of the temple were first used as a club, and then were given to the collective farm as a warehouse of mineral fertilizers. In 1998, the Orthodox community of the church was officially registered, restoration work began. In 2002, the Intercession Church was transferred as a courtyard to the Spaso-Vlaherna monastery of the village of Dedenevo.

Church services are held regularly on Sundays and public holidays.

By the 20s of the last century, 263 people lived in the village of Novokartsevo, Obolyanovo volost. The fact that the manor was in the vicinity of the white-stone Pokrovsky church is indicated by several circumstances. Firstly, until now, local residents find in their gardens a large amount of old broken brick. The manor complex, which included the manor house, outbuildings, stables, was most likely made of brick, which was made at a brick factory in the village of Yazykovo. Well, and secondly, there are several old ponds that the landowners loved to erect.

Ponds in Novokartsevo have their own names - Red and White. The peasants called the Red Pond because of the color of the porch of the lord's house, which the master often went out to admire the local beauties. And white - due to the fact that in it the priest of a rural temple sanctified water.

The Great Patriotic War did not pass unnoticed by the inhabitants of Novokartsev. In their huts in November 1941, motorized units of the Wehrmacht were placed on a billets. Locals recall how German soldiers, hungry and frozen to the bone, could not get rid of lice. There was nowhere to wash at that harsh time. The occupation of the village lasted about two weeks. The day before the Soviet offensive, German soldiers told all the surviving old men, women to take their children with them, belongings and go into the forest. After 12 hours, a bloody battle was supposed to begin here.

After the war, life returned slowly, but surely to its former course, surviving men came to the village from the front. In the neighboring village of Podyachevo, the Arbuzovo collective farm was formed. They built several livestock farms, brought cows. Peasants from almost all nearby villages worked on the farm. The herd was then 1200 goals. The collective farm made it possible to earn a living and provide the family with everything necessary. After the restructuring, the Arbuzovo state farm quickly turned from a prosperous enterprise into bankrupt. Collective farm fields were overgrown with grass, and a friendly and efficient collective fell apart.
