Tiknuni castle is what's left of a fortress and palace, its stones scattered through the Tiknunyats forest in Ararat region. The site belonged to Ostan, a royal-domain district of the old Ayrarat province (a region of ancient Greater Armenia), close to Dvin, once a capital of the country.
The ruins lie 1 km north of Getazat village. No dates or builders survive in the record.
In Ararat region, roughly 16 km south-southeast of Yerevan as the crow flies, near Getazat village.
