Horomayr Monastery

Another fortress, another valuable piece of history!

Here we go to Northern Armenia to enjoy the second biggest city of Armenia – Gyumri and many Bronze age settlements. Generally, Armenia boasts having many archaeological sites and some of them are located in the Shirak region.  Not too far from Harichavank, you will pass by  Horom cyclopic fortress. Horomayr monastery is an ancient Bronze Age Urartian fortification atop two large hills south of the main road and opposite of the dam and Kamut Reservoir.

Here, you can’t find much, the only collection of stone walls. But if you rely on your imagination pieces of the huge fortification may appear in front of your eyes.

Don’t hesitate and come to Armenia to discover the undiscovered!
