| The Echmiadzin cathedral stands in the heart of the Mother See of Holy Echmiadzin. Saint Gregory the Illuminator (who converted Armenia to Christianity) had a vision of Christ striking the earth with a golden hammer: it was there where he built a basilica in 301AD, later transforming into this cathedral. |
