Pemzashen Church, a seventh-century structure in the village of Pemzashen in Armenia's Shirak Province, exemplifies Armenian architectural tradition. Built alongside the foundations of an earlier fifth-century basilica, the church stands as a testament to the region's continuous religious significance. Located just off the main thoroughfare through the village, the building remains an important cultural heritage monument in Armenia.
