The construction date of the church is not known, but gravestones of the 16th and 17th centuries were re-used in its construction, providing a terminus post quem for the building.

The structure is a typical single-nave basilica with an altar on the eastern side flanked by vestries. The structure has a semicircular vault and a gable roof.

Satellite imagery shows an extensive earth moving operation underway just adjacent to the historic Zorakhach Church.
