Lonely Planet review for Temple of the Assumption

The attractive 1895 neo-Byzantine Temple of the Assumption is again a working church, although restoration of the interior’s beautiful murals continues. Closed during the Soviet period from 1957, it was turned into the city’s first year-round skating rink. You’ll find a good church shop here selling choral music and freshly baked cakes.
