Erebuni Archaeological Museum

Great experience! Highly recommend taking the guided tour, it’s cheap enough and very interesting. Tour guide is very knowledgeable. After the tour, you have an opportunity to explore the area outside and walk around. Amazing history in this area.

A very good historical walk. There is a museum at the entrance which I recommend checking out. It has a number of original artifacts and some history notes in different languages. The hike to the top can be done by stairs, so be prepared for a decent fitness. Once on the top, the reward is a spectacular view of the city, besides the amazing walls of the old city. Worth going!

The museum is very small, with only a few exhibited items. That's ok, as most of the items are interesting and the real draw is the fortress anyway. As is common in "post-soviet" areas, the archaeological site is not meticulously maintained, but you get to walk through and explore it fully. It's unfortunate that some people apparently feel the need to leave graffiti on the ruins ... But the experience is still worth it if you're intrigued by ancient history and Urartu ... which I am. Note: bring water and be prepared to spend a lot of time fully exposed to the hot sun.

Amazing artifacts from 782 BC Kingdom of Ararat /Urartu. Great gift shop. Bring an extra bottle of water for any dogs you might see up top.

Must-see in the area. I accidentally ended up my walk after visiting Gum market here and it turned out to be a satisfying experience. Not only viewing interesting history of the ancient Armenia, but I could also view the panoramic city sightseeing from above. 📍FYI, the entrance fee for indoor exhibitions is 1500AMD.

Erebuni Museum was established in 1968. The opening of the museum was timed to coincide with the 2750th anniversary of Yerevan. The Museum stands at the foot of the Arin Berd hill, on top of which the Urartian Fortress Erebouni has stood since 782 BCE. The City-Fortress was excavated, some parts of the structure were reinforced and restored, and the fortress was turned into an outdoor Museum.

I liked the museum it's well organized, but the lighting inside is so bad the translation to English is not so clear with some strange words, the stuff are helpful. paid 3500 AMD for two tickets 🎟️ each 1500 AMD and Additional 500 AMD for taking mobile photos, after all it's good to pay a visit if you're near by .

This museum has stuff from excavations dated to several centuries ago! The artifacts inside the museum are cool. I went here as a part of the tour
