Zarema Giorgis

Zarema Giorgis is a church enclosed by a recently erected building. This safe church with a rectangular ground and circular ceiling is made up of large block stones intervened with fine woods. The access to the chamber where the Tabot is housed has its sides fixed with incised boards. Its fine wooden ceiling is supported by hewn pillars. It has a striking architectural setting.

According to Ruth Plant, the relic came into being sometime after the construction of the Debre Damo monastery, but before the start of hewing rock churches. The remains are located near the Debreselam church.
