The temple was built in the years 1693-1699. from a brick on the site of the dismantled gate church (1513) in the name of St. Sergius of Radonezh, the throne of which was transferred to the newly rebuilt church with the Refectory Chamber.
The former stone church of St. Sergius (1513) was built at a time when the fortress wall was still wooden. After the fence was rebuilt in stone, the Church of St. Sergius, and after it the Precursor Church built in its place, was inside the monastery - because the line of the stone wall was referred to the east from the old wooden line by several meters. Over the new entrance to the monastery built the Red Tower.
