Dadivank

(Khutavank, Monastery on the Hill). Located in the Khachen principality in Artsakh (present-day west of the NKR, Kelbajar region), Dadivank is an outstanding monument of the medieval Armenian architecture. Tradition states that Dadi, one of the 70 disciples sent to Armenia by Thaddeus, Apostle of Jesus Christ, suffered martyrdom in Artsakh. In 1214, Dadivank (Monastery of Dadi) was built in the ancient place of his burial.
