Sergey Merkurov House-Museum

This museum is the former residence and studio of the Armenian sculptor Sergey Merkurov. It functions as a biographical site where visitors can view his sculptures and the original workspaces where the artist created his pieces.

Getting There

The museum is located within the historic district of Gyumri. From the city centre, it is accessible via a short taxi ride or a walk of approximately 10 to 15 minutes, depending on your starting point.

Duration of Visit

Allow roughly 1 to 2 hours to walk through the house and examine the sculptures in the studio area.
