Yererouk also Yereruyk or Ererouk, is an ancient Armenian church near the village of Anipemza in the Shirak Province of Armenia. Yererouk was built on a plateau near the Akhurian River, which defines the frontier with Turkey, about 5 km southeast of the ancient city of Ani.

The basilica is one of the earliest surviving Christian monuments in Armenia and was added to the UNESCO World Heritage Tentative List on August 25, 1995.
