The National Library in Armenian capital will host on August 27 a presentation of the book “These amazing Armenians from Akhaltsikha” by Lyuba Matevosian that features history of town of Akhaltsikha, its churches, theatres, outstanding and famous persons, colleges and schools.
As a center of Javakheti, Akhaltsikha has played a significant role in cultural, social, and political spheres of Armenia and Georgia. The author says that a separate work can be written about every person, featured in the book.
The book’s historical, cultural and informational significance and importance comes more amid the today’s policy of Georgian authorities aimed at laying hands on Armenian churches and cultural monuments, which are located in the territory of modern Georgia.
