Derenik Demirchyan memorial

The Derenik Demirchyan memorial honors the Armenian novelist and playwright who lived in the building at house No. 29 on Abovyan Street from 1929 to 1956. It stands nearby, on the path leading to his house-museum, in Yerevan's Kentron ('center') district.

The memorial was installed in 1977. It's listed among the historical and cultural monuments of the Kentron administrative district.

This memorial sits within Yerevan itself, in the Kentron district — roughly 1 km northeast of the city center (straight-line).
