(Translated by Google) This is a cathedral monastery church in the name of John the Baptist. This is the first pillarless temple in the city. The heavy cube with a large apse, resulting from 18th-century reconstruction, and the narthex give the church a down-to-earth feel. The facades of the temple are decorated with tile inserts, and the interior has preserved 19th-century paintings.
Services are not held in the temple; it is currently under restoration.
(Original)
Это соборный монастырский храм во имя Иоанна Предтечи. Это первый бесстолопный храм города. Тяжелый куб с большой апсидой, возникшей в результате перестроек XVIII века, и притвор делают церковь приземленной. Фасады храма украшены вставками изразцов, а в интерьере сохранились росписи XIX века.
Службы в храме не проводятся, в данный момент находится на реставрации.
