Geghard Monastery

Named afer the holy lance that pierced Christ's side at crucifixion. The 4th century monastery of Geghard is a unique architectural construction in the Kotayk province of Armenia, being partially carved out of the adjacent mountain.

The spear itself was once kept here but is now housed in the holy treasury at Echmiadzin.
