ADDITIONAL INFO Armenians in Tbilisi (Armenian: Թիֆլիսահայեր, Tiflisaheyer) are ethnic Armenians living within the city of Tbilisi, the capital of Georgia. Armenians are the second largest ethnic minority in Tbilisi at 7.6% of the population. Armenians form the majority in this city until the middle of 19th century. Official Georgian statistics put the Armenians in Tbilisi 82,586 people. History The Armenian history and contribution to the capital city of Tbilisi (known as Tiflis in Armenian, Russian, Persian, Azeri and Turkish) is very significant. After the Russian conquest of the area, Armenians fleeing persecution in the Ottoman Empire and Persia caused a jump in the Armenian population until it reached about 40% of the city total. Many of the mayors and business class were Armenian, and much of the old city was built by Armenians. Until recently the neighborhoods of Havlabar and the area across the river were very heavily Armenian, but that has changed a great deal in the last two decades. An Armenian community has been known to have existed in Tbilisi since at least the 7th century. Armenian community life was very rich in Tiflis. By the late Middle Ages, there were some 24 Armenian churches and monasteries in and around the city. According to Tournefort, Armenians constituted three-quarters of the population of Tiflis in the 18th century, and owned 24 churches. Ten of the churches were destroyed in the 1930s, and as of 1979, fourteen were still standing.[8] Here is the list of Armenian churches in Tbilisi. Holy Mother of God (Mens) Norashen Bethlehem St. Astvatsatsin Pashavanq church Vera St. Cross Geghardavanq - Krnanis Tsiranavor St. Astvatsatsin Jigrasheni Avetyats church Dzorabash St. Gevorg Zrkinyants St. Gevorg Kamoyants St. Gevorg Qarap St. Gevorg Kuky St. Astvatsatin Mughni St. Gevorg Navtlukh St. Gevorg Ejmiatsnetsots St. Gevorg - Nor Ejmiatsin St. Gevorg St. Grigor Lusavorich St. Karapet St. Minas (church) St. Nshan St. Sargis St. Stepanots (Kusanots) Tandoyants St. Astvatsatsin Hreshtakapetats Chugureti St. Astvatsatsin Shamkoretsots Karmir Avetaran In 1916, the Province of Tiflis had a population of 1,473,000, among whom Armenians numbered 411,000, Shi'a Muslims (mostly Azeri Tatars and some Persians) 39,000, Sunni Muslims (Tatars and Turks) 129,000, Kurds (Muslim and Yezidi) 56,000, Russians 150,000, Georgians 580,000, and other Christians (Catholics, Protestants, etc.) 18,000. Under Tsarist Rule, the city of Tiflis became the center of Russian rule for the whole viceroyalty of Caucasia. During the 19th century, Tiflis became the center of the Eastern Armenian renaissance and an Armenian cultural center second only to Constantinople. Until recently the neighborhoods of Havlabar and the area across the river were very heavily Armenian. The older Armenian neighborhood of Tbilisi, on both sides of the river between Freedom Square and Havlabar carry Armenian names, including Tumanyan, Abovian, Akopian, Alikhanian, Sundukian, Yerevan, Ararat and Sevan. The Diocese Church (the Saint Gevorg Church) in Tbilisi where the Armenian primate of Tbilisi sits is very close to the city fortress. In front of the church is the tomb of the famous Armenian Georgian bard, Sayat-Nova (An author of poems in Armenian, Georgian and Turkish). In Havlabar, the other Armenian Church of Echmiadzin is undergoing renovation and reconstruction. The "Armenian Pantheon of Tbilisi" has the tombs of many famous Armenians including writers Hovhannes Tumanyan and Raffi. Freedom Square was once officially Paskevich Yerevanski Square, or commonly Yerevan Square, then Lenin Square. Paskevich Erevanski was a Russian general and was called Paskevich of Yerevan in honor of his taking of Yerevan from İrevan khanat for the Russian Empire. Armenian theatre was established as early as 1858 by the great Armenian theatre figure Gevork Chmshkian. The first staging was "Adji Souleyman" performance. In 1936 it was rebuilt and the new theatre was renamed Stepan Shahumian Armenian Theatre. A number of generations of great Armenian actors have performed on its stage. Music for theatre pieces were often written by Aram Khachaturian, Armen Tigranian, Alexander Spendiarian, Gourgen Shakhbazian and others. Nowadays Petros Adamian Tbilisi State Armenian Drama Theatre is the main cultural center of Georgian-Armenian community of Tbilisi and it continues the work of the great predecessors. In 2005 the Diocese of the Armenian Apostolic Holy Church in Georgia initialized erecting a khachkar (cross-stone memorial) in Tbilisi in memory of the victims of the Armenian Genocide. «Հայկական ճարտարապետությունն ուսումնասիրող» (RAA) հասարակական կազմակերպության նպատակն է գիտարշավների միջոցով գտնել հայկական ճարտարապետության կոթողները ներկա Հայաստանի սահմաններից դուրս՝ պատմական Հայաստանի տարածքում՝ Արեւմտահայաստանում եւ Կիլիկիայում, հարեւան երկրներում՝ Վրաստանում, Ադրբեջանում, Նախիջեւանում եւ Իրանում, պատմական սփյուռքում, ուսումնասիրել եւ որպես հրատարակություն ներկայացնել հայ եւ օտար հանրությանը։ Tags: armenia, armenian, armenians, arminia, arminian, armyani, armeniya, armyanin, l'Arménie, l'arménien, les Arméniens, Armenien, Hay, Haykakan, Hayastan, Hayastani, Hayots, Patmutyun, Badmutyun, Yeghern, Eghern, Genocide, 1915, Massacre, Kars, Marash, Zeitun, Erzerum, Mush, Van, Musa-Ler, Musa-Dagh, Mousa-Ler, Mousa, Musaler, Turkey, Turkish, Turks, Ottoman Shipping: Worldwide (due to problems with shipments to some counties, we do not ship to those countries).
