REPAIRS OF DADIVANK VESTIBULE

On June 17 the scientific council of the NKR agency for study of
historical environment and preservation of monuments discussed the
project of reconstruction of the vestibule of the monastery of
Dadivank. The head of the agency S. Sarghissian informed that the
project was accepted which means that the reconstruction works will
start this year as there is already a benefactor ready to fund the
reconstruction of the vestibule. The author of the projects of
reconstruction of the small domed church, the cathedral and the
church vestibule of Dadivank monastery architect Samvel Ayvazian said
the reconstruction of the cathedral started last year and will be
completed at the end of the current year. As to the small domed
church, its reconstruction will start only after the removal of the
frescoes which the former director of reconstruction works, painter
Armen Mnatsakanian willfully did himself in the church. There is
already the decision of the scientific council and the permission of
the head of the Artsakh diocese of the Armenian Apostolic Church
Parghev Martirossian for the removal of the fresco.
