The seat built in 1728 in Armenia and decorated with wood carvings for the archbishop of ancient Akhtamar Church (on Akhtamar Island in Lake Van) was transferred to Tabriz Museum along with the bishop’s walking stick and church bell during the events of the year 1895. The cane was made in 1892 and the bell in 1831.
Several medals and crosses were also brought into the museum during those years. Huge candlesticks of the churches St. Thaddeus and St. Stephanus as well as their big bell and wooden door are kept at the museum.
A precious collection of historical and religious handwritten books including the holy book of Armenians, and books by Kharazmshahi and Nezami are also preserved at the museum.
