Bebekli Church (Church of Saint Paul, Catholic)
Seyhan, Adana
A Catholic church popularly known as the "Bebekli Kilise" (Church with the Baby) because of the statue of the Virgin Mary atop its bell tower.
Its story
The church was built in the late 19th century by the Armenian Catholic community. The bronze statue of Mary on top of the tower looks like a baby from a distance, which gave the church its name. Today, under the name of Saint Paul, it hosts Latin Catholic services and can be visited.
