Senty Church, Medieval church in Nizhnyaya Teberda, Russia
The stone church stands on a mountain ridge along the left bank of the Teberda River, 18 kilometers south of Karachayevsk.
The church construction date of 901 AD is confirmed by an inscription discovered on the northern wall of the eastern wing.
The interior walls contain the largest collection of preserved frescoes from the Alanian period, including images of the Virgin Mary and Saint Nicholas.
The religious complex includes the main church building, a stone mausoleum, and the former Spaso-Preobrazhensky Monastery structures.
The church walls feature curved masonry rows at the gables instead of horizontal ones, demonstrating distinct architectural techniques of the period.
