Hovhannes Shiraz House-Museum

The Hovhannes Shiraz House-Museum (Armenian: Հովհաննես Շիրազի տուն-թանգարան) was founded in 1983 in the Kumayri historic district of Gyumri, Armenia, and opened in 2003.

The museum is devoted to the exhibition and preservation of the Armenian poet Hovhannes Shiraz's personal belongings, manuscripts and works.

The building was built in 1886 using red tuff stone from the Shirak province, and was the home of a wealthy merchant named Qeshishyan.

This permitted the museum, in collaboration with the Government of Armenia and the City Hall of Gyumri, to restore the public space as a house-museum.

Shirak State University donated archival documents to the museum, including orders from Leninakan Pedagogical Institute from 1935-1936 concerning the student Hovhannes Shiraz.
