During Sero Khanzadyan’s lifetime, his home in Goris, which he built himself, famous adults were gathering often there, talking, organizing literary evenings. After his death, the house was sold, was later bought by the state, and became known as a house-museum. It was renovated for several times, and  was opened officially in the framework of the “Goris CIS Cultural Capital” event several days ago.

Khachik Harutyunyan from Goris remembers Sero Khanzadyan since his childhood. He had been there many times with his father. He remembers how they were working, but they were talking with each other much more.

“Many things have disappeared from Khanzadyan’s personal belongings, very few things have been saved from the house, then his son brought some things, his sister donated things. But the manuscripts are almost absent, he had a wonderful library of 24,000 pieces of books that do not exist today,” says Khachik Harutyunyan regretfully. According to him, there are many unfinished works to do.

“He was a man of extremes, but he was a great Armenian and not only a great Armenian, but also a too Armenian. Armenia began from Adam and Eva for Sero Khanzadyan,” Khachik Harutyunyan recalls.
