Առաստամուղ/Arastamugh
About This Museum
Tucked away in the charming village of Khachik in Armenia's Vayots Dzor region, the Arastamugh Museum is a delightful surprise. It feels less like a formal institution and more like stepping into a local's wonderfully cluttered attic, packed with generations of life. You'll find everything from ancient agricultural tools and traditional carpets to Soviet-era radios and personal family photographs. The sheer variety tells a profound story of this specific corner of Armenia, making history feel immediate and personal.
Collection Highlights
Look for the beautifully preserved Armenian costumes and the impressive display of copperware. A collection of old wooden furniture and vintage household items gives a real sense of daily life from a bygone era.
Visitor Information
