This large church was completed around the year 1035, and the walls are covered with long and elegantly carved inscriptions that reveal much of its history. The inscription partially reproduced above records that the church
was commissioned by prince Ablgharib Pahlavid to house a fragment of the True Cross. He had obtained this relic after a visit to Constantinople, and in the inscription he commanded that nightly services should be held within this church until the second coming of Christ.
