The Trinity Convent was first mentioned in 1631, but most of its buildings were rebuilt in the 19th century. It was closed in the 1920s and briefly used as a prison and then for housing. In 1993 the territory was returned to the Orthodox Church which re-established the convent in 2004. The convent's only cathedral is the two-storey Trinity Cathedral which dates from 1695 but has been subject to reconstruction work several times since.
