Holy Mary station commission in Tehran metro 

ArmInfo.  The Saint Mary station of Tehran's Line 6 has officially opened, the Iranian Embassy in Armenia reported.

"On Saturday, November 29, the Saint Mary station of Line 6 was  opened. This 11,000-square-meter station was built next to the  Armenian Cathedral and serves the intersection of Ostad Nejatollahi  and Karimkhan Zand Streets," the Iranian Embassy tweeted (X).

Media outlets previously reported that the new station is decorated  in a Christian style-the walls feature bas-reliefs depicting the  Virgin Mary, Jesus Christ, a dove (symbol of the Holy Spirit),  grapevines, and Christian crosses. Flowers and architectural motifs  from the Armenian Church of St. Sarkis, located nearby, are depicted  alongside the image of the Virgin Mary. Authorities emphasize that  the opening of the station under the name of the Virgin Mary is a  sign of respect for the Christian community and a symbol of religious  tolerance.
