The Cathedral of the Holy Martyrs in Gyumri, Armenia, completed in 2015, serves as the cathedral of the Ordinariate for Armenia, Georgia, Russia, and Eastern Europe of the Armenian Catholic Church. Located on Victory Avenue adjacent to the Dzitoghtsyan Museum of National Architecture, the cathedral was constructed between December 2010 and 2015. Originally planned as the Cathedral of the Holy Cross, its name was changed to the Cathedral of the Holy Martyrs in honor of those canonized as victims of the Armenian genocide, reflecting the building's spiritual significance to the Armenian Catholic community.
