In the 16th century, it was rebuilt and became part of the general system of defensive walls of the city, connecting with the castle. In 1724, Adam Senyavsky restored the damaged gate by building a toothed decorative parapet on white stone consoles.

The monastery ensemble included the Church of the Intercession, the Saint Nicolas Church and the Trinity Church, a bell tower and cells, an entrance gate and a fence. In 1744, the monastery was rebuilt in the Baroque style.
