Tegher

Tegher. The church complex Tegher is situated on the southern slope of Mount Aragats. It cosists of a church and an anteroom and was built in the 13th century under the patronage of Vache Vachutyan's wife Mamakhatun. The anteroom is of great interest, on the roof of which from the south-western and north-western corners small chapel-like churches were built. This anteroom has a special place among the architectural monuments of Armenia, due to its costructional composition. There is a stunning view opening from the territory of the complex to Byurakan observatory.
