The aim of our petition is to bring the alarming state of conservation of the tenth-century Georgian church of Oshki, located in the village of Camliyamac in northeastern Turkey, to the attention of the responsible Turkish authorities. Oshki is one of the most important medieval architectural monuments of Turkey, and everything possible should be done to secure this building for future generations.
