About Saint Gayane Church

The Church of Saint Gayane is a seventh-century Armenian church in Vagharshapat the religious focal point of Armenia. It is situated inside strolling separation from the Etchmiadzin Cathedral of 301. St. Gayane was worked by Catholicos Ezra I in the year 630. Its plan has stayed unaltered regardless of incomplete remodels of the arch and a few roofs in 1652. Gayane was the name of an abbess who was martyred with different nuns by Tiridates III of Armenia in the year 301 and therefore made a holy person of the Armenian Apostolic Church. Saint Gayane Church sits on the site where the previously mentioned holy person was martyred amid the season of the transformation of Armenia to Christianity in the year 301 AD.

The fifth-century Armenian antiquarian Agathangelos composed that the youthful and excellent Hripsime who at the time was a Christian religious recluse in Rome, was to be strongly hitched to the Roman sovereign Diocletian. She and the abbess Gayane among different nuns fled the despot ruler and left to Armenia. The agnostic Armenian King Trdat got a letter from Diocletian in which he portrayed her magnificence. In 2000, Saint Gayane Church was recorded in the UNESCO World Heritage Sites alongside verifiable holy places of Vagharshapat.
