Iranian Armenians
Iranian Armenians are a distinct ethnic group residing in Iran, primarily in the city of Isfahan and its surrounding areas. They are descendants of Armenians who migrated to Persia during the Safavid era in the 17th century. This community has maintained its unique cultural identity, language, and traditions while also integrating into Iranian society.
The Iranian Armenian community is known for its rich contributions to Iranian culture, particularly in the fields of art, music, and commerce. They have their own churches, schools, and cultural organizations, which help preserve their heritage. Despite facing challenges, Iranian Armenians continue to thrive and play an important role in the diverse tapestry of Iran.
