St. Khach, which is known as Kasakh basilica among local population,
is a 4th century basilica building. A shard of the Crown of Thorns
is placed on the altar. In 2001, when the building underwent major
restoration, the church revitalized it mission of uniting people and
became a place where people could come, find guidance and belief,
and receive spiritual education. But the church temporary ceases
its activities during frozy winters of Aragatzotn marz (region). And
since the building of the church is unique, the installation of the
heating needed to be carried out in a way as to avoid damage to this
precious ancient structure.

its mission of uniting the Armenian people all over the world and
preserving the Armenian identity. Being corporate citizen we must

experience of future generations with the culture", – VivaCell-MTS
