The land of the Armenian Church has been put up for sale in the Halfet region of Turkey (historian, Urfa). Such a statement has been posted on February 5, 2010 on the Real Estate Agency website and said that the land occupied by the "Armenian Church and Priest's House" is sold in 2 million 810,000 lira (about $ 77,500).
This was reported by Ermenhaber.
The site noted that the area of the church is 904 square meters and there is a certificate of the building ownership.
One of the Turkish citizens living next door to the Armenian Church said that there were Armenians in the past and there was a Armenian church and a priest's house in the village.
According to him, the Armenians left the village about 120 years ago and after that part of the church turned into a mosque.
"On the walls of the church, as well as the walls of the house there were patterns.
Those ornate walls collapsed as a result of the February earthquake of 2023. Before the earthquake, the owner lived here, but we have recently heard that he wants to sell. "
