The Church of the Resurrection in Danilovskaya Sloboda is situated where Danilov Monastery was originally built, which was removed to another place in the 16th century. The now-existing church was constructed from 1832 to 1837 with support from I. Rybnikov.

The Church stands on the right bank of the Moskow River, where originally the oldest Moscow monastery was situated. Holy Danilov Monastery was founded in the 1270s to the 1280s by Daniil Aleksandrovich, the first Grand Prince of Moscow.

In 1330, Ivan the Moneybag (Kalita) moved the Monastery to the Kremlin leaving only a godforsaken cemetery there. According to a legend, the buried there Daniil Aleksandrovich, whose grave was lost, appeared before Ivan the Terrible. After this event, the Monastery was reconstructed in 1560 but 500 meters (1,640 ft.) northward of its previous place. At that time, there was a wooden parish church in the old cemetery. In 1699, a brick church, a predecessor of the now-existing building, was constructed.

The present Late Empire church has a symmetrical axial layout. A flat right-angled apse adjoins to the big four-column rectangular of the Church, crowned by a dome lantern rotunda, from the east. From the west, there are a large refectory (with side chapels dedicated to SS. Peter and Paul, St. Prophet Elijah, St. John Chrysostom, and St. Nicholas the Wonderworker) and a high three-tier bell tower. The rectangular volume enlarged on its side facades is in line with monumental six-column Ionic galleries in anta. The Empire-typical motif of a right-angled opening in an arched niche was used in designs of the apse's windows as well as of the main entrance on the western bell tower's facade.

The Church was shut down in 1933 and occupied by a production department of a factory manufacturing umbrellas.

In 1983, the Church was handed back to the Patriarchy as a part of the Danilov Monastery Complex. At this moment, more than a half of all frescoes could not be restored or were lost.

The Church was partially reconstructed, and, in May of 1989, the side chapel of St. Nicholas was consecrated. Since then, regular services have been held in the Church.

By 1998, the Church was completely reconstructed.

The Most Holy Patriarch Alexius consecrated the Church on 14 August 1998, Saviour of the Honey Feast Day. The Most Holy Patriarch, assisted by Archpriests Sergius of Solnechnogorsk and Arseni of Istra, consecrated the central Altar of the Resurrection and the side chapels dedicated to St. John Chrysostom and St. Nicholas the Wonderworker.

The Church has a baptistery to christen adults.

The Church's sacred objects include the honoured Icon of the Virgin Mary "Unexpected Joy" and the Icon of Great Martyr Panteleon.
