En Ру

Church in honor of St. Gregory the Illuminator, a monument of Armenian architecture of the 7th century. In 2000, the ruins of the temple and the archaeological area around it were included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. According to one version, the name translated from ancient Armenian means “temple of vigilant angels”, from the Armenian zvartun – angel. The temple was a round three-tiered domed structure. In the 10th century, the temple collapsed during an earthquake due to the weakness of the support nodes of the second tier.

Церковь в честь святого Григория Просветителя, памятник армянской архитектуры VII века. В 2000 году руины храма и археологическая территория вокруг него включены в список Всемирного наследия ЮНЕСКО. По одной из версий, название в переводе с древнеармянского означает «храм бдящих ангелов», от армянского звартун — ангел. Храм представлял собой круглое трёхъярусное купольное сооружение. В X веке храм обвалился во время землетрясения из-за слабости узлов опор второго яруса.
