Armenian church "Saint Mary" of Chișinău
Armenian church "Saint Mary" of Chișinău, Armenian religious building in Chișinău, Moldova.
The Armenian Church of Saint Mary features pointed dome architecture, detailed stone carvings, and traditional brickwork patterns characteristic of Armenian ecclesiastical design.
Built in 1804 following Armenian migration to Bessarabia, the church gained importance after the region became part of the Russian Empire in 1812.
The church maintains regular services in Armenian Apostolic tradition and functions as a gathering center for the Armenian community of Moldova.
Visitors can access the church near the central district of Chișinău, where religious ceremonies and community events occur throughout the year.
