The church is a monument dated back the Bulgarian Renaissance,
having national significance. It was built in 1834 on the

in its original old form due to Sultan's decree in 1696. Later
a bigger church was built and was opened in 1834. The iconostasis
was a work of some masters from Triavna wood-carving school,
but the icons were painted by representatives of Samokov School.
One of the richest collections of icons, painted by Dimitar
Zograff, is exposed in the church (including 68 icons). |
