- Etchmiadzin_Cathedral abstract "The Etchmiadzin Cathedral (/ɛtʃmi.ədˈziːn/ ECH-mee-UH-dzeen; Armenian: Էջմիածնի Մայր Տաճար, Ēǰmiatsni Mayr Tačar) is the Mother Church of the Armenian Apostolic Church and the central building of the Mother See of Holy Etchmiadzin. Located in the center of the city of Vagharshapat (also known as Etchmiadzin, after the cathedral), it is the first church to be built in Armenia. It is also considered the oldest cathedral in the world.According to the tradition, the original church was built between 301 and 303 by Armenia's patron saint Gregory the Illuminator, following the adoption of Christianity as a state religion by King Tiridates III. The core of the current building, in a shape of a Greek cross, was built in 483 by Vahan Mamikonian after the cathedral was severely damaged in a Persian invasion. Etchmiadzin was the seat of the Catholicos, head of the Armenian Church, until 484. Subsequently, it suffered almost a millennium of neglect until 1441, when it was restored as catholicosate and remains as such to this day. Since then several renovations took place, and in the 17th century bell towers were added to the cathedral. Today, it incorporates styles of different periods of the Armenian architecture. Diminished during the early Soviet period, Etchmiadzin revived again in the second half of the 20th century and under independent Armenia.As the spiritual center of Armenians, Etchmiadzin has been one of the most important locations (not only religiously) in Armenia since its foundation. The cathedral complex is called the "Armenian Vatican" for its significance. Along with several important early medieval churches located nearby, the Etchmiadzin Cathedral was listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2000.".
