It is situated on the right bank of the Dniester River, near the village of Țipova in the Rezina district. The church dates back to the 16th–17th centuries.

*The bell tower, the monks' cells, and the other chambers are more recent, dating from the 19th century. The more than 20 chambers are interconnected by tunnels, galleries, and stairways, with the Church of the Dormition of the Mother of God being the largest space.
