Armenian Cathedral of Tbilisi, Armenian monastery in Tbilisi, Georgia

The Armenian Cathedral exhibits traditional Armenian architectural elements with stucco-coated brick walls and a rectangular perimeter following an open cross plan.

The cathedral's foundation dates to 1720, marking a period of strong Armenian influence in Tbilisi when the community participated in local commerce and culture.

The interior walls display late 18th-century paintings by Hovnatan Hovnatanian alongside four biblical murals created by Gevorg Bashinjaghian between 1922 and 1923.

Regular religious services take place at the cathedral, which serves as the main gathering point for the Armenian community in Tbilisi.

The cathedral grounds contain the tomb of Sayat-Nova, an 18th-century Armenian poet who composed verses in Armenian, Georgian, and Azerbaijani languages.
