Srvegh monastery

Tavush
XIII c.

The complex of the Srvegh monastery (XIIIc.) is located in the Tavush district 3km to the north-west of the Aygehovit village, in a place called Khachi Tak (Beneath the Cross). The main church complex’s vaulted hall is made of brick. It has underlined ascending proportions, with its vault having a pointed hood, according to which the church got its name - Srvegh (with the pointed hood). The Srvegh monastery was reconstructed numerous times. In most of the lower parts of the walls pieces of cross-stones are inserted.

Around the monastery there is a mid-century cemetery. To the north stand the walls of the XIXc. church. In the surrounding area the remnants of the dwellings, walls and other parts have been preserved.
