In an annex of the cathedral you will find an interesting exhibition on the Ascension Convent, which was unfortunately demolished by the government in 1929 along with other historical buildings. It was founded in the 14th century by the great princess Eudoxia after she was widowed. Shortly before she died, she took vows as Euphrosyne and was later proclaimed a saint.
