Dadivank (Armenian: Դադիվանք) or Khutavank (Armenian: Խութավանք, lit. 'monastery on the hill'[1]) is an Armenian Apostolic[2][3] monastery in the Kalbajar District of Azerbaijan. It was built between the 9th and 13th centuries and is one of the main monastic complexes of medieval Armenia.[4]
In Azerbaijan, the monastery is called Dadivəng or Xudavəng.[1] Azerbaijan denies the monastery's Armenian religious and cultural heritage, instead falsely referring to it as a "Caucasian Albanian temple."[5][6]
