You forgot Zvartnots Cathedral as well! Even if we have to use a lot of new parts to restore it, I think it’s worth it! Garni is also made of 30% restored stones too, but it is fine
Heart breaking 💔
I only agree with hin goris and khndzoresk. The rest should not be modified, the ancient monasteries and fortresses should be preserved as they are, if they are restored they would lose their historical value
In process of being restored / planned to be restored:
Old Gyumri
Old Meghri
Kond
Modern city of Goris
Hmm, it would be nice to have a reconstruction of the original dome for Akhtala monastery as it does look off with its current wooden dome but I don’t know if we have any illustrations to help us reconstruct the original dome. I’m also in agreement about reconstructing Hin Khod and Khndzoresk as it would be nice to have more traditional, local Armenian architecture as that were only destroyed in the 1950’s by the Soviets so we have plenty of images to help reconstruct the villages.
I recently realized/remembered something about how historical sites are handled in other countries, specifically in Germany, that may be relevant for these discussions.
It’s often not the state, but it’s the people who organize in clubs/associations to take care of old sites and finance the work and material needed by donations and membership fees. They may also in part be supported by the state/cities, I don’t know that for sure. But it’s often times not the state’s initiative to protect these places but the people’s.
