Yeghishe Charents House-Museum

[1] As part of the rehabilitation process, the flat where Charents lived from 1935 to 1937 was turned into a house museum by the decree of the Council of Ministers of Soviet Armenia on 8 February 1964.

[2] In 1987, on the occasion of the ninetieth anniversary of Charents, the flat underwent changes and the area of the museum was enlarged with the support of Armenian First Secretary Karen Demirchyan.

The museum exhibits the relics of Charents, including his personal belongings, manuscripts, documents, books, photos, and other specimens.

The house is furnished in a combination of Western and Eastern tastes: the grand piano "Becker", the typewriter, the furniture of red wood, the carpets inherited from his father, the ottoman, the Chinese panels, the collection of ivory and bronze statues of Buddha, the reproductions of Leonardo da Vinci, Fra Angelico, and so on.

There are also books that other writers presented to Charents, including Avetik Isahakyan, Hamlik Toumanian, Garegin Bess, Khachik Dashtents and others.
