Saint Karapet Church (Georgian: წმინდა კარაპეტის ეკლესია, Armenian: Սուրբ Կարապետ եկեղեցի; Russian: Церковь св.
In the list of Armenian heritage ordered by Nerses Ashtaraketsi St. Karapet is mentioned as following: "Built by a nobleman Baghdasar Isahak Kamazov in 1705, later renovated by the community".
It may be supposed that by start of 18th century St. Karapet might have been in ruins and the stone with the note was moved to Bethlehem church.
Jason Tumanian, a mayor of Tbilisi, with all his family were buried in the yard of the church.
The church once had decorated doors in the traditions of Armenian ornamental art: they were removed after the end of the Soviet Union.
