Due to the sacredness of the Assumption of the VirginMary, the church instituted that the faithful should go on a fast in preparation for the celebration of this fast.
The iconostasis of the central sanctuary is made of ebony inlaid with ivory, and is surmounted by thirteen icons of the VirginMary and the Twelve Apostles.
