Koryun Street

Koryun Street, Academic street in central Yerevan, Armenia

Koryun Street is a thoroughfare in central Yerevan that combines university buildings, shops, and residential structures along its route. It runs through the Kentron district and connects different areas, with modern and older architecture standing side by side.

The street is named after Koryun, a 5th-century historian, writer and translator, a pupil and collaborator of Mesrop Mashtots. In Soviet times it was called Kirov Street, after the Soviet statesman Sergei Kirov (1886–1934). In the night of 24 to 25 November 2010 a fire near house No. 23 destroyed 14 private houses.

The street hosts several universities that shape daily life and bring young people to study and work in the area. The presence of students moving between institutions gives this district an energetic, youth-oriented character.

The street offers good pedestrian access and several bus stops connecting to other parts of Yerevan. Along the way, visitors find banks, pharmacies, cafes, and shops meeting basic needs.

At No. 23, a fire on the night of 24–25 November 2010 destroyed 14 private houses. At the corner with Gevorg Kochar Street stands the sculpture "Book Your Future", installed in 2012 by sculptor D. Minasyan during Yerevan's celebrations of the 500th anniversary of Armenian printing, when the city was World Book Capital.
