Surb Hovhannes Matur is a small Armenian Apostolic chapel set on a hard-to-reach summit of Sri mountain, part of the Pambak range, close to the village of Tsaghkaber in Lori.

The site sits in a zone of frequent seismic activity, with earthquakes and strong winds recorded here. It's listed among Tsaghkaber's registered cultural monuments.

The chapel stands near Tsaghkaber village in Lori region, on a summit of Sri mountain in the Pambak range, roughly 81 km north-northwest of Yerevan in a straight line.

Strong winds are common at this height, so conditions on the summit can turn rough with little warning.
