Hotiml is an old village. At the end of the XV - beginning of the XVI century there were deaf places in which several monks settled, who came from the monastery of St. Sergius of Radonezh . Subsequently, the Khotiml Monastery was founded by the forces of the Trinity-Sergius Lavra. The monks built cells and a wooden church in the name of the Assumption of the Virgin. To the monastery came the settlement of widows and widows, engaged in cattle breeding and flight keeping . As a result, the village began to grow. At the beginning of the 17th century, the wealthy Monastery of Willa was assigned to the Shuisk-Trinity Monastery, which, in turn, was under the jurisdiction of the St. Nicholas-Shartom Monastery, which is still located near Shuya, in the village of Vvedenie .

The monastic peasants were engaged in rafting from Shui on plows and barges of linen, leather, soap and other goods. Therefore, the Teza River contributed to the development of the village as a trading place.

At the beginning of the XVIII century, wealthy Merchantsky merchants began the construction of St. Nicholas Church from stone with a tent bell tower.

In 1721 , a wooden roller mill was built on the banks of the Teza.

In 1805 , the construction of the new Assumption Church was completed, next to which trading shops were lined up. Every year, fairs were held on the feast day of the Assumption of the Virgin , and merchants from many cities of central Russia gathered along the waterway.

Ancestors of the great Russian writer A.P. Chekhov on the maternal side were born on the land of wants.

Mikhail Frunze , who was later named after the collective farm organized in the village, also hid from the security department here . The village itself became in the 60-70s the central estate of the collective farm with its own hospital, dining room, several shops, and a household.
