The [[Holy See of Cilicia]] is located in Antelias (a northern suburb of Beirut). It was relocated there in 1930 from Sis (historical Cilicia, now in Turkey) after the Armenian genocide.  Alongside the Mother See of Holy [[Echmiadzin]] located in [[Armenia]], it is one of the two sees of the Armenian Apostolic Church (the national church of Armenians). The Catholicos, the leader of the Holy See of Cilicia, has his summer residence in Bikfaya in the Matn District also north of Beirut.  The seminary of the Armenian Apostolic Church is also on site at Bikfaya. The affairs of the Lebanese Armenian Orthodox population however are run by an independent body, the [[Armenian Apostolic Diocese of Lebanon|Armenian Prelacy of Lebanon]] (Aratchnortaran Hayots Lipanani) with its own Armenian Primate of Lebanon Bishop Shahé Panossian as head. {{citation needed|date=October 2015}}
