Three Riders church in Eski Kermen

The Three Riders church features two aisles with high benches along walls, receiving natural light through two small carved windows.

The church preserves a northern wall fresco depicting three mounted figures, including Saint George, dating from the 12th to 13th centuries.

This religious structure forms part of an extensive network of over 400 cave formations within the ancient settlement of Eski Kermen.

Visitors can access the church through the main gate at the southern end of the plateau, which connects to the central street.

The temple contains a southeastern entrance with a side altar arranged over a small grave and additional burial space near the northern wall.
