Mher Mkrtchyan Home and Museum

Mher Mkrtchyan Home and Museum, Memorial museum in Gyumri, Armenia.

The Mher Mkrtchyan Museum in Gyumri occupies a 19th-century building at the corner of Varpetats and Rustaveli streets. Its displays include the actor's stage costumes, props from films such as "The Boys of the Orchestra" and "Tango of Our Childhood", more than 270 photographs, and his own caricatures and letters.

The museum was founded in 2004 on the initiative of the Gyumri municipality and opened on 20 December 2006 in a building constructed in the late 19th century. In 2007 Mkrtchyan's granddaughter Irene Terteryan donated around 1,500 new exhibits to the collection.

The museum holds personal belongings and costumes donated by Mkrtchyan's granddaughter, reflecting the life of a major Armenian performer and his role in local theater and cinema. The collection shows how theater and film shaped Armenian cultural expression over many decades.

The museum is at 30 Rustaveli Street, at the corner where Rustaveli and Varpetats streets meet in Gyumri. It is open daily from 10:00 to 17:00, except Monday. The building is a 19th-century structure of historical and architectural value.

The museum displays original film props from classic Armenian films, including items from productions that touched generations of viewers. These practical objects give visitors a direct connection to the artworks that mattered in local film history.
