This church, near the Mitropolitan offices and also known as the Mitropolitan church, was unluckily selected by the communist authorities to be used for the Museum of Medieval Art in the 1980s, and was subsequently nearly completely destroyed to be turned into a bland concrete bunker. However, the side entrance leads to the new Shën Gjergj church at the back of the building, where the original 18th century wooden iconostasis can be viewed. The carvings in the dark wood are impressive, though not all icons remain.
