The 1705 pisanie records recent repairs to the narthex and flooring by the Metropolitan of Sofia, a native of Tarnovo.
The large square portico has three unequal arches on the western facade and two each on the sides, resting on stone columns with floral capitals.
Entry is through a portal; the sculpted stone frame also encompasses the pisanie, which depicts the Wallachian coat of arms and the double-headed eagle of the Cantacuzenes.
The facades, typical of the 18th century, are divided into two nearly equal sections by a string course formed from three thin lines separated from one another.
The 1927 parish house, designed by Cristofi Cerchez and located to the southwest, has two floors, nine rooms and a storage area, all above a double basement with arched ceiling.
Archaeological excavations in 1956 unearthed large arched rooms, seemingly from the time of Matei Basarab, likely the site of the refectory, and a two-story house from around 1700.
