PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Christian religious Armenian community of Amensdorf district of Halle, Germany, has obtained a land with a construction which earlier hosted a Catholic church.
The community’s shepherd, hieromonk Aivazian said this is the only church owned by Armenians in Germany.
“The Catholic church hasn’t functioned for three years already. And we are happy that with the city administration’s permission it will again bring the faithful under its roof,” said Herbert Siegfried, chairman of the Amensdorf society.
The opening ceremony will take place in June or July.
Over 500 000 ethnic Armenians need a church in Germany, reported the website of the Armenian community of Berlin.
