Bethlehem cathedral in Isfahan, The Sacred Legacy of Christianity in Iran
The Bethlehem Church in Isfahan is a historic landmark that holds a significant place in the city's religious and architectural heritage. Constructed in 1628 AD, it is one of the oldest churches in Isfahan and has been designated as a national heritage site in Iran. The church's architecture showcases a unique blend of Islamic, Catholic, and Armenian influences, with elements such as decorative tileworks, intricate paintings, and goldsmithing adorning its interiors. The church was commissioned by Khajeh Petros Velijanian, a prominent merchant of the time, and today, visitors can explore the church's rich history, view captivating paintings depicting biblical stories, and even find the tomb of Khajeh Petros Velijanian and his family in the churchyard. The Bethlehem Church offers a fascinating glimpse into the Christian heritage of Isfahan and stands as a testament to the city's multicultural past.

I’m shocked about this Bethlehem Church in Isfahan Iran 🇮🇷. I am an indigenous Fijian Christian , the misleading statement of the western world about Iran is a “wide gap” that needs to be addressed and corrected . Thank you for posting this beautiful piece of history that shows Iran 🇮🇷 is not a terrorist Nation.

This is an old Church, not in use The current Iranian regime is terrorising its own people Why are people protesting the actions of the regime,specifically women who are jailed and tortured

I am sorry, but you have to present this magnificent church better, meaning truthfully. There is nothing Catholic about it. It is an Armenian Apostolic church, built by the Armenians, and everywhere you can see the Armenian inscriptions.
