Церква Різдва Пресвятої Богородиці у Великій Багачці була побудована в 1710 році коштом багачанського сотника Андрія Стефановича. Новий іконостас у церкві встановили в 1738 році. У 1860 році храм поставили на кам'яний цоколь і прибудували дерев'яну дзвіницю. При церкві діяла школа, де викладали дяк Лаврентій Бабіченко і паламар Тарас Ткач.

За радянської влади церква Різдва Пресвятої Богородиці була знищена в 1937 році. Після здобуття Україною незалежності постало питання про відновлення храму. Спочатку церковні служби проходили в орендованому приміщенні фабрики "Веснянка". Згодом зусиллями прихожан був побудований новий храм.

Сучасна будівля церкви є копією споруди 1710 року і перша служба відбулася в 2001 році.
