History

The Slavic population appeared in this region by the 9th century. However, surrounding villages in the area of Kokino are only mentioned historically from the beginning of the 17th century. The first mention of Kokino was in 1610, when Bryansk nobleman Vasily Tyutchev was granted an estate that included Kokino and a number of villages.[4] A wooden church and a manor house were built.

The last owner was pomeshchitsa Varvara Nikolayevna Bezobrazova. After her death in 1828, because of lack of heirs, the estate was given in custody, and later sold. In 1830, the estate passed into the possession of Lieutenant Colonel P. D. Khalayev. The last landlord was Trubchevsk county marshal of the nobility N. N. Khalayev.

In 1930, Kokino Church of the Intercession was closed and converted into a club. In 1938, priest Andrey Pokrovsky was arrested. After the war the church was dismantled, crypts were destroyed, and the cemetery around the church demolished. Currently on the site of the temple is a monument to Lenin.[5]
