Armenian Information
Erebouni fortress-museum
Erebouni fortress-museum
is housed in the ancient citadel of Erebouni, the predecessor of the present-day
Yerevan. Its
display includes bronze and iron tools, earthenware, weapons, ornaments
and other articles made by Urartu craftsmen which have been uncovered
during excavations on the site of the ancient fortress town. A visit to
the palace of King Argishti, the founder of Yerevan,
is also a point of interest. Remains of fortress walls, temples, water
ducts and other ancient structures have left their imprint on the land.
