The church is located in the northeastern part of Melnik near the Kordopulova House. It is not known for sure when it was built, but it was probably in the XIII - XIV century, during the heyday of Melnik. It was a large three-ship building. The church is not preserved today. There are just walls, altar and apse. Locals have put icon of St. Varvara at the altar.
