The today’s church, situated at about 3 km South-West of Cetatuia Monastery, was built by Vasile Lupu and finished by his son Stefanita Voda on of November 1660. The church built in the Moldavian architectural style is made of rock and brick. The painting belonging to Ioan Matei was accomplished in 1660. Between 1788-1792 and 1806-1812 (when Iasi was invaded by the Russian troops), the monastery served as military hospital.
