The church in the Yarma neighborhood of Andaç village is a Nestorian church. The area's old name was Geramon, which is why the church is known as the Geramon Church. The room with the entrance door opening to the south is covered by a barrel vault running east to west, and it has more than one level. From here, another door leads into a second room, also rectangular in plan along the east–west axis and covered by a barrel vault. A series of pointed-arch recesses runs along its north wall. The third section is the church's main place of worship, forming the nave, with the kanki (sanctuary) to its east.
