CHURCH BUILDING
Saint George Church (Surp Gevorg)
Isfahan · Armenian Apostolic
A brief history
Khwaja Nazar financed Saint George’s in New Julfa’s Small Square quarter. The diocesan history links inscriptions on stones beneath the altar to a possible 1611 construction date.
An interesting detail
Stones brought from Etchmiadzin helped make the church an Armenian pilgrimage destination.
