English: Kaymaklı Manastırı was an Armenian monastery. It is on the terrain of a farm house at the fringe of the city. The roof being gone it is open to the elements, a pity because there are some good frescoes inside, and the stonework is fine. The monastery was in use until WW I. Two chapels remain, one – dating from 1424 – houses the frescoes, the other is used to store hay. I found the frescoes very difficult to "read". Things may have changed, this is a new edit of a 1993 slide, after I made fresh scans in 2018.
And to complicate matters, in 2022 I decided to add pictures and provide full sizes to all. I was not satisfied with earlier edits, which were too bluish. For a reference I took one picture I made myself, but with rain about to arrive, so bad light and two pictures by others (a roof had been installed by then). I also took my limited knowledge of what the frescoes may have looked like and went to work. I am rather satisfied with what came out, though some pictures lack sharpness.
