Спасо-Преображенська церква в Нещерові збудована в 1794 році поміщиком Іваном Гудимою-Левковичем, нащадком козацько-старшинських родів Гудим та Левковичів.

Преображенський храм, який формою нагадує корабель, є взірцем архітектури перехідного періоду від українського бароко до класицизму. У західному кутку храму розташована дзвіниця з дерев'яними віконницями, вбудована в саму будівлю. У підвалі церкви знаходиться склеп, загадкові коридори якого здавна породжували легенди про підземні ходи, що ведуть за багато кілометрів від Нещерова.

У 2004 році при Спасо-Преображенській церкві було відкрито скит Іонінського чоловічого монастиря. На його території можна побачити старовинний козацький хрест. Церква добре відреставрована.
