It
was
built
in
the
late
17th
century
under
the
reign
of
Iyasu
I.
The
original
church
was
struck
by
lightning
and
had
to
be
rebuilt.
It
is
a
stone
church
with
two
floors
and
a
thatched
roof.
Unlike
Ethiopian
churches
that
normally
have
a
circular
plan,
this
one
is
different,
since
its
plant
is
rectangular.
It
has
two
entrances,
one
for
men
and
the
other
for
women.
Inside
you
will
see
that
the
entire
ceiling
is
full
of
winged
cherubs.
These
are
said
to
represent
the
omnipresence
of
God.
The
church
walls
are
full
of
paintings
depicting
biblical
scenes.
Be
careful
with
the
photos
inside
the
church,
because
the
flash
cannot
be
used.

Se
construyó
a
finales
del
S
XVII
bajo
el
reinado
de
Iyasu
I.
Un
rayo
se
cargó
la
iglesia
original
y
tuvo
que
ser
reconstruida.
Es
una
iglesia
de
piedra
con
dos
pisos
y
techo
de
paja.
A
diferencia
de
las
iglesias
etíopes
que
tienen
normalmente
planta
circular
esta
es
diferente,
ya
que
su
planta
es
rectangular.
Tiene
dos
entradas,
una
para
hombres
y
otras
para
mujeres.
En
su
interior
veréis
que
todo
el
techo
está
lleno
de
querubines
alados.
Se
dice
que
estos
representan
la
omnipresencia
de
Dios.
Las
paredes
de
la
iglesia
están
repletas
de
pinturas
en
las
que
se
representan
escenas
bíblicas.
Ojo
con
las
fotos
dentro
de
la
iglesia,
porque
no
se
puede
usar
el
flash.
