Armenian religious architecture in the late 19th early 20th century Kayseri: spatial and cultural cleansing

Francesca Penoni · 2015

Catalogue summary

A catalogue of Kayseri’s Armenian churches and monasteries reconstructs religious architecture from the mid-nineteenth century through 1915 and records destruction, neglect, and transformation after the Ottoman period. Demographic evidence places the buildings within the city’s changing Armenian presence.

Why this matters

This thesis connects architectural documentation with the spatial history of Kayseri Armenians, making the disappearance of local religious infrastructure visible as a research question.
