By its origin, the village of Borisovo is very ancient and historical evidence of it dates back to the beginning of the 16th century. In “Drive the Volodimir scribes of Roman Ignatievich Obraztsov” in 1500, it mentions a controversial meadow ... along the river Nerl of the Grand Duke with the peasants of the village of Borisovsky. From here we also see that Borisovo was a grand-ducal estate. The church in the village is probably as ancient as the village itself; at least in 1500 it existed, otherwise Borisovo was not called a village. In “Histor. meeting on the citizens of Suzdal ”A. Fedorov village Borisovo is an independent parish of the Suzdal diocese. And from the local church documents it can be seen that the church was in honor of St. Nicholas and the miraculous and was called St. Nicholas; the building was wooden, with a wooden bell tower. This church existed until 1800, when the existing stone church was rebuilt and consecrated, with one throne in honor of St. Nicholas and the miraculous, the bell tower under it was stone. The warm stone church was built by the zeal of the parishioners in 1839 and also has one throne - in honor of the icon of the Mother of God, called the “Joy of All Who Sorrow”. The parish consisted of a village and villages: Subbotino, Telepnicha and Lotarevo. In 1893, there were 186 households in the parish, 547 male souls, 587 female souls ^[2] .
