North of the cathedral stands the refectory Church oi the Conception built in 1551 in place of a wooden one and restored by Yevgeni Arkhipov in 1958. Like the cathedral its original appearance was considerably altered. Its main section consists of the spacious square hall of the refectory with a high ceiling and a single pillar. It stands on the first floor of the building. The east wall was adjoined by the smaller rectangular section of the church proper situated slightly to the south. The present apse was added in the seventeenth century. The refectory hall is also adjoined on the west side by a building which balances the church. The ex­tended facade of the whole ensemble looked on to the convent's inner courtyard. This facade probably had a flight of steps running along it and leading up to the entrance into the refectory. The lower storey contained a bakery, kitchen and other domestic premises. The re­fectory has two features which distinguish it from the other convent buildings: a band of indented red rhom­buses on a white background running along the cornice rarely found in Russian architecture, and an uncommon technique of laying the walls and vaults in small brick Similar decorative bands are found in Polish architec­ture. It is quite likely that the refectory church was de­signed by a Polish architect invited by Yelena Glinskaya or her family. This throws further light on the part played by the Glinskys in the preparations for Solomonia's imprisonment.
