A
Church of the Apostles
On the way to Kars Castle, assorted crumbling reminders of Kars' ancient past huddle along the riverbanks, including the Church of the Apostles. Built between 932 and 937 for the Bagratid King Abas, it was repaired extensively and turned into a mosque in 1579 when the Ottomans rebuilt much of the city; the Russians added the porches in the 19th century. The 12 relief carvings on the drum are of the apostles.
