Saint Sarkis Church is an Armenian Apostolic church in Baron Avak neighborhood of Tabriz, Iran. St. Sarkis was built with funding from the Petrossian family. Built in 1845, the church is in the courtyard of Tamarian Armenian school building, which was extended out to add the Sahakian School.
The Church of St. Sarkis in Tabriz was constructed in 1821 by Petrosian in the “Baron Avak” neighborhood and was rebuilt in 1845. The church is designed in the Armenian architectural style and has a cross-shaped structure. Inside the church, four brick columns with wide stone bases separate the altar and secondary prayer rooms from the main assembly hall. Outside, at the foot of the eastern wall of the courtyard, there is a stone monument dedicated to those who lost their lives on the road to freedom.
