Surb Gevorg Church in Volgograd

Surb Gevorg Church in Volgograd, Armenian Apostolic church in Dzerzhinskiy District, Volgograd, Russia

Surb Gevorg Church is a cross-domed Armenian Apostolic church with a bell tower, built in 2000–2003 in Dzerzhinskiy District behind the central city cemetery. Its courtyard holds a khachkar placed for the 1700th anniversary of Armenia's adoption of Christianity and a memorial to the victims of the 1915 Armenian genocide.

The church was built to serve the Armenian community's religious needs and honors Saint George according to Armenian ecclesiastical traditions. Its construction reflects the long-standing presence of Armenian believers in the Volgograd region.

The parish belongs to the Armenian Apostolic Church, not the Orthodox Church. Since August 2003 it has published the monthly newspaper Lusavorich, and the church refectory serves matagh, a consecrated meal distributed on feast days. A khachkar in the yard marks 1,700 years of Christianity in Armenia.

The church stands behind the central city cemetery in Dzerzhinskiy District, with a candle hall added beside it in 2004. The grounds hold a khachkar and a memorial to the victims of the 1915 Armenian genocide. The refectory burned in 2012 and is being rebuilt as a small spiritual centre with a hall, dance class and Sunday school.

In the courtyard stands a khachkar, a carved stone cross erected for the 1700th anniversary of Armenia's adoption of Christianity. A candle hall was added beside the church in 2004, and a refectory built in 2006, damaged by fire in 2012, is being rebuilt as a small spiritual centre with a hall, dance class and Sunday school.
