Taksim Surp Harutyun Church (Armenian: Սուրբ Յարութիւն Եկեղեցի), is an Armenian Church in the Beyoğlu district of Istanbul.
The original date of first construction is not exactly known but the church was removed in 1846, closed down in 1890 and rebuilt in 1895 by the architects Hovhannes and Mıgırdiç Esayan. The number of the Christian church visitors fell after the Armenian Genocide of 1915.[1]
