About Arakelots Monastery
Arakelots Monastery was an Armenian monastery in the historic province of Taron, 11 km south-east of Mush, in present-day eastern Turkey. According to tradition, Gregory the Illuminator founded the monastery to house relics of several apostles. The monastery was, however, most likely built in the 11th century.
