Altre informazioni

Vank Cathedral was one of the first churches to be established in Esfahan’s Jolfa district by Armenian immigrants under Shah Abbas after the Ottoman war (1603 – 1605). Construction is believed to have taken place between 1606 and 1664. Like a Persian mosque the building has a domed sanctuary, but with a semi-octagonal apse and raised chancel as seen in western churches. The exterior is plain modern brickwork, but the interior is elaborately decorated with paintings and gilded carvings, some in the style of the Persian miniature. The courtyard contains a large freestanding belfry. An Armenian plaque hangs at the cathedral entrance along with both Orthadox and Protestant graves placed along the exterior wall.
