2. Matenadaran

The Matenadaran is the first scientific-research institution in Armenia, established in 1921 based on the manuscript repository of Etchmiadzin. In 1939, the Matenadaran was moved from Etchmiadzin to Yerevan and housed in the Public Library building. The construction of the Matenadaran building in Yerevan began in 1945, based on the design of architect Mark Grigoryan, and was completed in 1957. By a decision of the Soviet Armenian government, in 1959, it was transformed into the Institute of Ancient Manuscripts, and in 1962, it was named after Mesrop Mashtots, the creator of the Armenian alphabet.

4. Tsitsernakaberd Memorial Complex

"At the beginning of the 20th century, the Turkish government carried out one of the century’s greatest crimes against humanity—the Armenian Genocide. The Tsitsernakaberd Memorial Complex is dedicated to the 1.5 million Armenians who perished as a result of the genocide orchestrated by the Ottoman Empire. Since its inauguration in 1967, the memorial has become an integral part of Yerevan’s architectural landscape, serving as a pilgrimage site. The complex consists of three main structures: - The Memorial Wall (Hushapat), - The Sanctuary of Eternity, where an eternal flame burns, - The ""Reborn Armenia"" Memorial Column, a 44-meter-high pillar symbolizing the revival of the Armenian people. Twelve massive stone slabs encircle the eternal flame, representing the twelve provinces of historic Western Armenia that were lost due to the genocide. Surrounding the memorial is a 100-meter-long wall, engraved with the names of the cities and villages where the massacres took place."
