Jrapi Caravansarai

Last updated October 22, 2025

The Jrapi Caravansarai is a medieval caravansarai located near Jrapi, Armenia.^[1] The Jrapi structure is similar to the Aruch Caravansarai, with the latter featuring stone arches, three parallel chambers, and a single entrance for people and animals.^[2] In the 1970s, the Jrapi Caravansarai was moved in its entirety to its current location due to the damming of the Akhurian River.^[3] The caravansarai is currently adjacent to two medieval church buildings.^[1]
