Srvegh Monastery

The main church features a vaulted hall constructed from brick and andesite, with ascending proportions and a pointed hood architectural design.

Located in the Tavush district, the thirteenth-century monastic complex stands 3 kilometers northwest of Aygehovit village in an area called Khachi Tak.

The monastery walls incorporate pieces of cross-stones, while an adjacent mid-century cemetery demonstrates the traditional burial practices of Armenian communities.

The Research Center, led by architects Hovhannes Sanamyan and Andranik Sargsyan, manages current restoration projects to maintain the structure's integrity.

The name Srvegh derives from the distinctive pointed hood of the vault, which sets this monastery apart from other religious structures in the region.
