1515 Tvakani Khachkar

Хачкар 1515 года · 1515 թվականի խաչքար

The name itself gives the clue: "tvakani" means "of the year," so this is known simply as the 1515-year khachkar (carved cross-stone). It stands in Dzoragyugh village, on the grounds of the Masruts anapat (hermitage), in Armenia's Gegharkunik region.

The monument is entered on Armenia's state list of immovable history and culture monuments, under registration number 5.60/10.5.44. Beyond its name and location, the record gives no further detail on the stone itself.

The khachkar stands in Dzoragyugh village, Gegharkunik region, near the town of Martuni, about 58 km east of Yerevan in a straight line.
