Saint Peter and Paul Church, Yerevan : ウィキペディア英語版
Saint Paul and Peter Church, Yerevan

Saint Paul and Peter Church ((アルメニア語:Սուրբ Պողոս-Պետրոս Եկեղեցի); ''Surb Poghos-Petros yekeghetsi'') was an Armenian Apostolic church in Yerevan, Armenia originally built during the 5th-6th centuries. It was demolished in the 1930s to make room for the Moscow Cinema on Abovyan Street.
==History==
According to Armenian historian Karo Ghafadaryan, the church of Saint Peter and Paul was the oldest and biggest church in old Yerevan. It was not the only church in old Yerevan. In fact, when in 607 AD the newly elected Catholicos of Armenia Abraham I assembled a meeting at the city of Dvin, he invited clergymen from territories controlled by the Byzantine Empire as well as two priests from Yerevan. Therefore this tells us that in old Yerevan there were at least two large churches. In the 17th century, French traveler Jean Chardin visited Yerevan. In his description about the city he mentioned that there were numerous churches in old Yerevan, but did not mention a church with the name of "Surp Poghos-Petros".
In 1679, a calamitous earthquake leveled much of the city and destroyed many structures in the neighboring regions. Amongst the structures that lay in ruin was the church of Saint Peter and Paul. A portion of the eastern section of the church survived, and the rest was soon rebuilt from its ruins. The newly reconstructed church went by the same name as its predecessor.〔(Saint Paul and Peter Church ) in Armenian Holy Apostolic Church, Araratian Patriarchal Diocese〕
There are not any known historical references to the rebuilding of Poghos-Petros Church. Most likely, the church was reconstructed toward the end of the 17th century. Ghafadaryan found the years 1691 and 1692 inscribed upon some of the khachkars built into the church's eastern and northern walls. From two inscriptions Karo Ghafadaryan found that further restoration efforts had taken place again in later years. The first inscription, located upon the arch of the southern façade, tells that the church was restored in 1778. In the second inscription, inscribed onto the northern wall, states that the church was restored in 1820 with the financial assistance of the city's residents.〔Karo Ghafadaryan, Երևանի միջնադարյան հուշարձանները, վիմական արձանագրությունները ‘‘(Monuments and lapidary inscriptions of Medieval Yerevan)’’, 1975, Yerevan, pp. 159-160〕
===Destruction===
In 1931 the Saint Paul and Peter Church was destroyed by the occupying Soviet regime to build Moscow Cinema. Many khachkars and religious structures such as churches, chapels, and shrines were destroyed across the country during this time to eliminate religion. Some fragments of the church's walls and wall-paintings survived. They are now displayed in the Yerevan History Museum and History Museum of Armenia.
