The church at Tepebağ is an Italian Catholic church built in the 1880s in the name of Saint Paul.
On top of it stands a bronze statue of the Virgin Mary, two and a half metres tall. Because that figure looks like a baby to those below, the building is known as the church with the baby.
It is in the city centre and reached by any of the minibuses and public or municipal buses.
