    The delegation of RA Ministry of Culture and Youth Affairs headed by
    Deputy Minister Gagik Gyurjyan will participate in the official opening
    ceremony of the Church of the Holy Cross on Akhtamar Island. Press
    Secretary of the Ministry Gayane Durgaryan said at today's press
    conference that the delegation comprises Director of the Oriental
    Studies Institute of RA Academy of Sciences Ruben Safrastyan, President
    of RA Union of Architects Mkrtich Minasyan, Archeology Institute of
    RA National Academy of Sciences Pavel Avetisyan, Head of the Culture
    Ministry Department on Maintenance of Historic and Cultural Monuments
    Artyom Grigoryan, PhD in Architecture Murad Hasratyan. The date of

    Let us remind that the Church of the Holy Cross is one of the
    exceptional examples of Armenian medieval architecture and sculpture, a
    masterpiece of world culture of the 10th century. After reconstruction
    the Turkish Ministry of Culture and Tourism took the decision to
    invite the Armenian delegation to participate in the opening ceremony.
