Saint Sargis Church, Tbilisi

Saint Sargis Church was an Armenian house of worship in Tbilisi constructed with traditional stone masonry and characteristic features of Armenian architectural style. The building was notable for its carefully worked stone facades and the distinctive arrangement of its interior religious spaces.

The church was founded in 1737 and served the Armenian community of Tbilisi as a center of worship for several centuries. It was demolished during the Soviet period in the 1930s when many religious buildings in the city were removed.

The church served as a gathering place for the Armenian community in Tbilisi and reflected their significant presence in the city's religious life. Armenian families marked important celebrations and rituals here for generations.

The location where the church stood is in central Tbilisi and was accessible on foot just as other religious sites in the city remain today. Visitors interested in learning more about Armenian churches can find other surviving Armenian places of worship still standing in the city.

The church was one of the few Armenian places of worship in Tbilisi whose fate was closely tied to the city's changes during the Soviet era before its eventual demolition. Its role in connecting the Armenian and Georgian religious communities offers insight into how these traditions coexisted in the city.
