Армянский алфавит - Armenian alphabet
About This Museum
People don't just come here to see letters; they come to touch a stone-cold testament to national identity, a monument that feels both ancient and vibrantly alive. You walk among these massive, carved tuff stone slabs, each one dedicated to a single character of the Armenian script, and it’s impossible not to run your fingers over the deep grooves. It’s more of an open-air sanctuary than a traditional museum, a quiet corner in Zaporizhzhia that hums with cultural pride. The overall effect is surprisingly moving, transforming abstract linguistic symbols into a powerful, tangible experience you can walk around and physically feel.
Collection Highlights
The undeniable stars are the 39 monumental stone steles, one for each letter of the original Armenian alphabet created by Mesrop Mashtots. They are arranged with purpose, inviting you to contemplate the unique artistry of each character, from the simple elegance of 'Ա' (Ayb) to the more complex forms like 'Ք' (K'e).
Visitor Information
You'll find this unique spot at 76 Peremohy Street—it's an outdoor monument park, so visiting is a weather-permitting kind of adventure. It’s free to wander through and offers a moment of quiet reflection away from the city bustle.
Architecture & Building
The 'museum' is less a building and more a landscaped monument park; the architecture is the alphabet itself, presented as a series of imposing, beautifully carved stone blocks set within a simple, contemplative open space.
