Tormak

Тормак · Տորմակ եկեղեցի

Tormak is a church from the 5th or 6th century, now standing in ruins about 2 km south of Gyulagarak in Lori region. It sits on the site of Tormakadur (also recorded as Vormakadur), a village that no longer exists.

The church was built to a single-nave plan with an external gallery, a form common among early medieval Armenian churches. Little else of the structure survives today.

It is listed among the historical and cultural monuments of the Gyulagarak area.

Tormak lies in Lori region, about 2 km south of Gyulagarak village and roughly 86 km north of Yerevan in a straight line, not far from Stepanavan.
