The five-domed Ascension Church is located north of the older George Church, which gave its name to the cemetery. It was built in 1808 and expanded in 1877. The Ascension Church is characterized by simplicity and modesty, like most churches in cemeteries. Its composition is based on a two-light, pillarless square with five domes. To the east, it has a large apse, and to the west, a refectory and a three-tiered bell tower built in 1808. The corners of the square and the apse of the refectory are rounded. The appearance of the church is complicated by extensive chapels added in the 1870s to the northern and southern walls of the square. The exterior decoration of the building is done in a classical style. The centers of the northern and southern facades are highlighted by risalits with triangular pediments. Rectangular windows are framed with panels and adorned with keystones. Horizontal divisions of the facades are represented by window lintels and a two-tiered cornice. The interior of the church is decorated with a carved five-tiered iconostasis, the lower tiers of which date back to the late 18th century, while the two upper tiers are made in the pseudo-Russian style of the late 19th century. The walls of the square have preserved updated paintings from the first half of the 19th century.
