Jukhtak Vank is an Armenian monastery of the 11th or 12th century, located in a forested clearing 3.2 kilometers northwest of Dilijan in Tavush Province. Built from basalt in the characteristic style of Armenian architecture, the complex sits near the church of Matosavank within Dilijan National Park, accompanied by a surrounding cemetery. Now a designated cultural heritage monument in Armenia, the monastery represents a significant example of medieval Armenian ecclesiastical construction.
