St. Karapet Armenian Church in Abadan is geographically located next to Masjid Musa-ibn-Jafar, one of the oldest mosques of Abadan. The two sacred places standing side by side indicate the friendship and fraternity between the followers of the two religions. The beautiful design around the church, the round columns and bronze conical-shaped domes of the church add to its magnificence and contribute to the beauty of Abadan. The name, the establishment’s date and other information of the church are inscribed in one sentence, above its southern entrance. According to the inscription the word “Karapet” means “The Messenger of Glad Tidings”. The minarets of the mosque which rise to the sky in the same direction as the conical domes of the church indicate the unity of the route to Allah adopted by both Muslims and the Christians.
