Silva Kaputikjan Museum, Literary museum in Yerevan, Armenia.
The Silva Kaputikjan Museum is a literary museum in Yerevan housed in a residential building in the city center. It contains five exhibition spaces with manuscripts, personal items, photographs, and books from the poet's life and work.
The museum opened in 2009 as a tribute to the poet who lived in this building for more than three decades. This conversion of her home into a museum space created a place dedicated to preserving her literary legacy.
Silva Kaputikjan was one of Armenia's most important poets, and her living spaces display the personal items that shaped her creative life. The rooms give you a sense of how she lived and worked, surrounded by the books and notes that formed her literary world.
The museum is located on Silva Kaputikyan Street in downtown Yerevan, situated on the fourth floor of a residential building. The central location is easy to reach, and the rooms are arranged like a private home, creating an intimate visiting experience.
The collection holds thousands of handwritten pages and personal gifts from notable Armenian artists and literary figures. These objects reveal the connections between the poet and her intellectual community in ways you can see and touch.
