ARF History Museum, History museum in Yerevan, Armenia
The ARF History Museum is a history museum in Yerevan dedicated to the Armenian independence movement and its key figures. The collection includes official papers, stamps, personal possessions, and materials that document the nation's political development during crucial periods.
The institution was founded in Paris in 1946 and later relocated to Yerevan, opening in 2007 at the Kristapor Mikaelian Center. This move brought the collection closer to the heart of Armenian revolutionary history.
The museum shows how the Armenian revolutionary movement shaped the nation's identity through its political journey. You can see this history come alive in the displayed objects and documents that visitors encounter throughout the space.
The museum is located on Mher Mkrtchyan Street in a central area of the city and is easy to reach. Plan to spend one to two hours viewing the collections and reading the information about each item.
The museum holds official documents that Armenian representatives presented during the Treaty of Versailles negotiations in 1919. These papers reveal how the newly independent nation advocated for its sovereignty on the international stage.
