The medieval monument of Armenia Noravank Monastery built in the 3rd-14th centuries was plundered during the Mongol invasion, but with the signing of peace between the Mongol Aga Khan and Prince Orbelian, it became possible to restore the monastery, which has survived to this day.
According to the historian Stepanos Orbelyan (XIII-XIV centuries), the Gndevank Monastery was founded by Princess of Syunik Sophia (Sopi) in the X century and served as a hermit retreat, but was destroyed by the persians.
This monastic complex of the medieval Armenian architecture is located in Arates village of Vayots Dzor Province of RA, on the bank of the Rivulet Arates of the Yeghegis River, on the top of a hill. The semi-ruined monuments group consists of several chapels, St. Sion (X c.), St. Astvatsatsin (XI c.) churches and two narthexes (XIII c.). It is supposed that the first construction of the monuments group was founded in the VII c., though the oldest written reference refers to the IX c.
