Dabra Amin Takla Hāymānot Church

This octagonal church was founded by Emperor Menilek II in 1898, but construction was not completed during his reign. Empress Zawditu provided the funds for continued construction. The church was finally completed in the 1970s. 19 manuscripts were microfilmed there by EMML.
