"The most curious of all the monuments of Ani, I do not pretend to have quite unravelled the complexities of its plan." - H. F. B. Lynch
This important church appears to have been founded by the princely Pahlavuni dynasty, and been used by the archbishops of Ani belonging to that dynasty. No foundation inscription has been discovered. The earliest inscription on its walls is from 1031 and mentions a donation of land made by Abughamir Pahlavuni. #Ani #Apostol_Kilisesi #Armenia #armenian #armenien #armenio #Caravanserai #Caravansérail #Caravançarai #catedral #cathedral #chiesa #christian #church #cristiano #eglise #Haiastan #Havariler_Kilisesi #iglesia #igreja #igrexa #Karawanserei #Kars #Kervansaray #kirche #medieval #Mestaba_Kervansaray #monasterio #monastery #mosteiro #oriental #orthodox #ortodoxo #temple #templo #Turkey #Vahe #Ани #Армения #Каравансарай #Карс #кафедральный #Монастырь #Селим #собор #церковь #Անի #եկեղեցի #Կարս #Հայաստան #Սելիմ #Վահե #վանք #տաճար #Քարավանատւն #Քարվանսարայ
