Kanach Zham

Kanach Zham

Kanach Zham is an Armenian Apostolic Church located in Shusha, Nagorno-Karabakh; it is just uphill from the Ghazanchetsots Cathedral. "Kanach Zham" means "Green Church" in Armenian, this is because at one time the church's domes were painted green. This church is also sometimes called "Karabakhtsots" in honor of the farmers from Nagorno-Karabakh who built it in 1847.
