The warm church, located on the southern side and adjoining the two-story building with its western wall, was founded in 1819. The icons for its iconostasis were created by the Usolye icon painters, the Khukhorevs. Bishops Samuel Zapolsky-Platonov and Ignatius Bryanchaninov were buried in this church. Dedicated to Saint John Chrysostom, it is the only one that has survived after the monastery was closed. Currently, the grave of Metropolitan Simon Novikov is located nearby. The church was restored in the late 1990s.
