Yot Verk Matur (Armenian: Յոթ Վերք Մատուռ) is a small monument erected around the late 14th century in remembrance of seven lords of seven villages. Local folklore tells that when the Turko-Mongol conqueror Timur Lenk came into Armenia, he made war against seven lords. As a result of the battles, the lords were killed and their villages were destroyed by Timur. The name literally translates to 'Seven Wounds Chapel'. Seven khachkars are lined in a row upon a low rock wall which surrounds the memorial, and one in particular situated in the center dominates the others. #Yot_Verk_Church #Armenia_Shahumyan #Gyumri #Locator #Model_by_Vahan_Grigoryan
