In the basement there are Oriental rooms whose walls and ceilings are lavishly painted after the model of the castle in the Moscow Kremlin.

The palace is surrounded with pergolas, park terraces, swimming pools, pavilions and platforms.

During the Communist era, the church was repeatedly desecrated, it served as a storage room for cleaners and gardeners.

One of the most obvious signs of desecration is a bullet hole in Christ’s forehead and a scratch of the Angel’s wings, representing the communist symbolic "murder of God".

The church is today used by the family of the Crown Prince Alexander, especially during Easter, Christmas, and Slava.
