Located in the southeast part of the historical center of the city, on the site of a former cemetery, this building completes the perspective of one of the ancient streets. It was erected in 1843 with funds from Ivanovo manufacturer A.N. Shodchin, and in the 1870s-1880s, a new part of the refectory was added, connecting the building with the bell tower. Today, the brick and plastered structure has lost its domes and side porticos, and only the lower tier of the bell tower remains. This is an example of provincial architecture in the late classical style, with a well-preserved facade decor that plays an important role in the planning of the surrounding area.

In the volumetric composition, a tall two-tiered main square dominates with a four-pitched roof, featuring a two-light lower tier and a blind upper tier with false openings. The center of the eastern facade features a semicircular apse of a lowered three-part altar. The spacious refectory, equal in height to the altar, is elongated by a narrower annex, while the lower square of the bell tower has rounded corners.

The facades are adorned with entrance porticos with two pairs of columns that decorate the lower tier of the main volume, and the outer corners of this volume are cut off. The decorative system includes a triglyph frieze in a simplified entablature, gentle pediments, and stepped attics. The middle parts of the walls of the side facades are highlighted by niches with pilasters on either side of the arched entrances, marked by wedge-shaped lintels with a keystone. Above the pilasters are the entablature and archivolt framing the semicircular window of the second light. The upper tier of the temple has protruding braced corners, a simplified entablature, and false arched windows connected by a beam at the level of the impost. The remaining windows of the building are rectangular. The altar part and the lower tier of the bell tower are decorated with pilasters.

The main volume of the temple is covered with a vaulted ceiling, the altar with barrel vaults, and its central part with a conch is connected by openings to small side rooms and is open to the square. Three longitudinal barrel vaults of the refectory rest on two columns shifted towards the eastern wall. The eastern part of the annex has a cross vault in the center, which rests on cross-shaped columns and two barrel vaults on the sides.
