Editor's Note
The Kümbet Mosque, also known as the Cathedral of Kars or Holy Apostles Church, is a historic building in Kars. Built in the mid-10th century as a cathedral church by the Armenian Bagratid King Abas I, it was converted into a mosque in 1579. In the 19th and early 20th centuries it served as a Russian Orthodox and later Armenian cathedral, and in 1993 it was again converted into a mosque. It now forms part of a larger Islamic complex that includes the Evliya Mosque, the biggest mosque in Kars.
