Neo-Gothic forms are also used in the manufacture of benches for parishioners and confessional benches, as well as in the manufacture of the pulpit, which is decorated with openwork metal forging. The temple building was designed by architect Wilhelm Neumanis. The facade of the temple with two slender towers is built in neo-Baroque forms.

Above the central altar there is a copy of Bartalome Esteban Murillier's painting "The Immaculate Virgin", which was personally made by Alexander Sergei Boravsky in 1906 in St. Petersburg.

The church houses the largest organ in Latvia, built by Polish craftsmen. The organ (28 registers, 2 manuals), dated 1909, was made by the company of Adolf Homan (Warsaw, Vilnius).
