Dabra Gannat Ēlyās Monastery: HMML Repository

Dabra Gannat Ēlyās Monastery

Tradition says that this church in East Goğğām was founded in 1468 by a high-ranking official of Emperor Zar'a Yā'eqob. The church came to prominence in 1874, when Emperor Yoḥannes promoted the church to the rank of dabr. EMML microfilmed over 50 manuscripts from this monastery.
