The house-museum of the great painter of the XX century, Martiros Saryan (1880-1972) was built in Yerevan by a special order of the government of Armenia and opened on November 26, 1967, during the Master’s lifetime.
The museum building consists of a two-floor private house, where the artist lived and worked in 1932-1972. A three-floor gallery is attached to the house which was built in 1967. The project designer of the house is the great Alexander Tamanyan. The museum part was designed by a well know architect, Mark Grigoryan.
