Brief History Of Asdvadzadzin Cathedral in Strovolos, Cyprus. Having lost the namesake medieval church in the walled city of Nicosia during the 1963-1964 troubles, the Armenian community needed to build a new church. After many years of efforts by the Prelature and the community leaders, on 25/09/1976 the foundation of the new cathedral was laid next to the newly-built Nareg Primary School on Armenia street. The church is built in a traditional Armenian architectural style, and was completed with the aid of the Government of Cyprus, the World Council of Churches, the Church of Westphalia and the faithful. It was consecrated in November 1981 by Catholicos Khoren I and Catholicos Coadjutor Karekin II.
