Orbeli Brothers museum

The Orbeli Brothers House-Museum displays about 1700 objects, including manuscripts, books, and personal items belonging to three scientists. The collection documents their work across different fields and includes materials from their daily lives.

The museum opened in 1982 to mark a major anniversary in the life of Levon Orbeli. The collection preserves the legacy of brothers who worked in their respective fields during the 20th century.

The house honors three Armenian scientists whose research in physiology, archaeology, and oriental studies earned international recognition. Personal items and documents in the collection were gathered by colleagues, friends, and students who worked alongside them.

Visits typically happen Tuesday through Sunday, which helps with planning a weekday or weekend trip. Since the collection is housed in a building, be ready for more compact spaces as you move through.

The collection includes publications and documents in several languages, showing how wide the brothers' scientific networks stretched. These international connections appear throughout items left by researchers from different countries.
