Architectural monument of national significance, entered in the Register of Monuments of History and Culture of the municipality of Chisinau at the initiative of the Academy of Sciences.

The church was built in 1810 on the site of an older one, burnt down by the Ottomans in the late 18th century.

It possesses the characteristics of the architecture of the 18th century churches of Iasi, with classicist influences in the plastic decoration. These elements are particularly noticeable in the architecture of the bell tower above the pronaos and the bulbous tower on the nave. The side walls are reinforced with buttresses.

It is a church with a traditional three-compartment plan: nave, altar aisle and pronaos, to which an external porch has been added.

In 1893 a library was opened next to the church and since 1895 – a church school.

It was only on 28 June 1990 that the Orthodox church was re-registered and the church “Annunciation” was returned to the parishioners.
