Font Size: Larger|Smaller

A Turkish private company that will restore a historic Armenian church has decided to hire a Turkish architect of Armenian origin as part of the restoration team consisting of archaeologists, art historians and civil engineers.

The owner of the company, Cahit Zeydanlı, met late last week with Turkish Armenian Patriarch Mesrob Mutafian to consult with him on hiring an Armenian architect for the project. After the meeting, Zeydanli said the company planned to hire Zakarya Mildanoğlu in line with the recommendation of the Armenian patriarch.

“The restoration may take a year or two and our goal is to restore a nice church in accordance to its original form.” He predicted the restoration work would be completed by the end of 2006. The church is on Akdamar Island, situated in Lake Van, and has historical significance for both Turks and Armenians.

Zeydanlı said the renovation project has the full support of top level Turkish officials, including Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and Culture and Tourism Minister Atilla Koç.
