Church of the Resurrection of Christ at the Makaryev Women's Monastery in Reshma

The Church of the Resurrection was a tall two-light square structure, which was previously topped with a baroque curved roof and five scaly domes on faceted necks. A square refectory adjoined it from the west, its height being half that of the square, but its width matching that of the square. It was crowned with a gabled roof. The preserved semi-circular apse was the same height as the refectory, and a small dome was located on its roof. The corners of the square were reinforced with pilasters, and the crowning cornice above them was decorated with rows of a small ledge and tiny crackers. The side facades of the walls featured an expressive free field with two small arched windows in the lower tier and slightly larger rectangular ones in the upper tier. The arched windows were set in shallow niches of the same shape, the upper part of which was separated by a small shelf. The window frames of the second tier were made in a crest-like baroque style with an elegant pattern, and the openings were covered with grilles. Inside, the square connected to the altar and refectory through wide arched openings. The vault in the refectory was barrel-shaped, in the church it was likely groined, and in the apse, it was a conch.
