Yereruyk architectural complex is found in written sources and specialized literature under the names of Yereruyk Basilica, Yereruyk St. Atsvatsatsin, and Yereruyk (Yererouk). More detailed information on the history of Yereruyk Temple is available in three languages (Armenian, Russian and English) on the information panel which was recently installed in the territory of the temple. According to the latest archaeological research, the temple dates back to the VI century.
This prominent Armenian archaeological structure is situated to the east of the community Anipemza of Shirak Marz (Region). Yereruyk is one of the achievements of both Armenian classical and Early Christian architecture.
On the initiative of the “Service for the Protection of Historical Environment and Cultural Museum-Reservations” SNCO another information panel is installed in the territory of Jrapi Caravanserai.
The latter was built in the X-XI cc. The preserved part of the medieval structure is a three-nave hall with a total length of 31m and a width of 13.65m. The caravanserai was built on the main road going from Georgia and the northern provinces of Armenia to Ani and refers to the city’s heyday. The evidence of it are the signs engraved on the stones by the craftsmen similar to those which are found on other monuments of the same period.
The “Service for the Protection of Historical Environment and Cultural Museum-Reservations” SNCO along with preservation and popularization of monuments all over the country also carries out installation and refreshing activities of information panels in the territories of the monuments.
