Built in the mid-1800s,the Nazaretian House is the former residence of a wealthy Armenian family. It's located in the oldest neighborhood of Gaziantep, currently known as Bey Mahallesi. In the 17th and 18th centuries this share of Gaziantep was known as Ayntab and was home to an affluent Armenian community, and the Nazaretians being one of the wealthiest families.nowadays,share of the Nazaretian House has been restored and serves as a cafe, with tables in the courtyard. But the left side has been left untouched, or preserving all the heavenly details of the 150-year-feeble manse,despite being in a state of disrepair. Located above an unassuming cafe, this place is not found in most tourist guides, or making it a hidden gem of the city. Inside the building,you'll find the feeble Armenian script welcoming visitors, who are free to explore the three different rooms upstairs. One room has a huge dome decorated with angels, and portrait photos hang on the walls,while the most heavenly room is decorated with stunning paintings and four angels at every corner.
