Tukh Manuk chapel in Kakavasar, Shirak, Armenia

Tukh Manuk chapel in Kakavasar

часовня Тух Манук · Մատուռ Թուխ Մանուկ

Tukh Manuk — literally "dark youth" — is a term for a small pilgrimage shrine, and this one stands in the Kakavasar area of Shirak region. It carries the name and little more.

No dated record survives here of when it was built or by whom. Layout, condition, associated saint or tradition — none of it is documented. What's left is a location and a category: a chapel, quietly present on the map.

The chapel sits in Shirak marz, roughly 93 km north-northwest of Yerevan as the crow flies. No separate town or village is tied to it in the record.
