The restoration of Tashoron Church, located in Cavusoglu, Province
of Malatya, Turkey, will be held as a result of an appeal by Mosque
Building and Preservation Foundation to Turkish Ministry of Culture,
Turkish news agency Anadolu reports.
Tashoron is a 280-year-old Armenian church located in Cavusoglu
neighborhood, the birthplace of slain Editor-in-Chief of
Turkish-Armenian weekly Agos daily Hrant Dink.
Dink visited the church back in 2002 and voiced the necessity of
its restoration.
