| The Church of St Francis and St Bernardino (Bernardine Church) |
 |
 |
The construction is massive and thickset and, if necessary, it could be used not only for prayers, but for defence. This possibility is also supported by the 19 embrasures in the northern facade. Admire the peaked windows, the ladder buttresses, the peaceful plane composition of the facade and the 17th century Renaissance pediment bearing a 19th century fresco catching the Gothic part of the church.
In Soviet times, the Bernardine Church was closed and turned into a warehouse. After the restoration of independence, Franciskan monks who had been working underground returned to the church. The Bernardine Church is currently being restored.
