Initially, the monastery's belfry was wooden and had nine bells and a clock. The new belfry, built in the second half of the 17th century, was a tall octagonal pillar with a tent-like top and a small onion-shaped dome. According to a description from 1810, the belfry had 10 bells: the largest weighed 1580 kg, while the smallest weighed 25 kg. In the early 21st century, the belfry was dismantled, but it is currently being restored. On July 30, 2019, the dome and cross were consecrated.
