The church is located in the town centre of Larnaca and was originally built in 1909 as a small chapel in memory of Adana's patron saint, Sourp Stepanos (Saint Stephen), by Armenian refugees who fled the Adana massacre. Following a fund-raising in 1912 and 1913, the church was completed on 1 April 1913. The first official liturgy took place in May 1914 and the consecration took place in 1918 by Archbishop Taniel Hagopian. According to the commemorative inscription in front of the entrance it was built "in memory of the martyrs of Cilicia, 1 April 1909". It is considered to be the first monument in the world for the Armenian massacres, even before the Armenian Genocide.
