Holy Saviour's Church, or the Church of the Redeemer, is a poignant symbol of Gyumri's history. Built in the 19th century, it was heavily damaged during the devastating 1988 Spitak earthquake, leaving its dome collapsed and walls cracked. Today, visitors can see the ongoing restoration efforts, with scaffolding and preserved ruins that tell a story of resilience. The church stands as a memorial to the earthquake's impact and the community's determination to rebuild.
