Nice place, I took many photos of it, some people from time to time enter in that place and even make the sign of the cross before going there. Maybe people in Riga are very religious, who knows :D

One of the favorite churches in Riga with a warm atmosphere and understanding priests who are able to listen and give good advice. There are many ancient icons. The main shrine is the miraculous icon of the Theotokos Merciful ( Достойно есть/ Милующая ), the original of which is located in the Assumption Cathedral on Mount Athos. And the icon of the Holy Great Martyr and Healer Panteleimon, painted in a monastery on Mount Athos at the beginning of the 20th century.Also icons of Saints Euphrosyne of Polotsk, Spyridon of Trimyphus, John of Shanghai and San Francisco and many other icons. There is a separate baptistery for baptism. The architectural style is eclectic or "Moscow baroque".
