Galentz Museum

The Galentz Museum is an institution in Yerevan housing paintings, documents, and personal belongings of Armenian painter Haroutiun Galentz in a dedicated exhibition space. The collection displays his works and records his artistic development throughout his career.

The museum was established in 2010 to preserve the legacy of Haroutiun Galentz, who survived the Armenian genocide. He developed his artistic skills in Syria and Lebanon before eventually settling in Armenia.

The paintings reflect Armenian traditions through still life, landscapes, and portraits created while the artist lived in Yerevan. Visitors can observe how his works capture the everyday beauty and character of his surroundings.

Visitors can request guided tours from knowledgeable staff who explain the artist's techniques and working methods in detail. It is helpful to check in advance whether tours are available or to plan for independent exploration.

The collection includes items from the artist's early career as a background painter in a photography studio in Tripoli. These pieces reveal his modest beginnings before he eventually arrived in Armenia as an established painter.
