Alby-Yerdy Temple

The Alby-Yerdy are the ruins of the medieval church in Ingushetia, located on the left bank of the Assa River. Tkhaba-Yerdy, also located in mountainous Ingushetia, is considered to be the oldest Christian church on the territory of the Russian Federation, though emerging evidence suggests that Alby-Yerdy may predate it. As a result of radiocarbon study, scientists date the architectural monument to 668-974.
