![Deyrulzafaran Monastery is one of the most significant centers of the Assyrian Church besides its magnificent architecture. It is situated in about 5 km from the old part of Mardin in Tur Abdin plateau located in the southeast of Turkey. According to chronicles, the monastery was founded in the 5th century AD, when the first church was built there.
The Monastery was constructed on a complex which had been used as a Sun Temple before Christ and was then used as a fortress at the time of Roman Empire. When Romans left the region, Saint Shleymun broucht the bones of some saints here. He converted the castle into a monastery. For this reason, Deyrulzafaran Monastery was first known as Mor Shleymun Monastery. monasterio mor hananyo (deyrulzafaran manastiri), monasterio de deyrulzafaran y patriarcado ortodoxo siríaco (deyrul zafaran manastiri ) en mardin, vista general de la ciudad de mardin con dron, dron de la ciudad histórica de mardin, paisaje urbano del c](https://media.istockphoto.com/id/1477471532/es/foto/monasterio-mor-hananyo-monasterio-de-deyrulzafaran-y-patriarcado-ortodoxo-sir%C3%ADaco-en-mardin.jpg?b=1&s=612x612&w=0&k=20&c=ZEwZo8CPMrm4a-7SAqKaY44ava62Jixx_5QQ86j8l6U=)
