About this cemetery
Noratus Cemetery is in the village of Noratus in Armenia's Gegharkunik Province, near the western shore of Lake Sevan. Its old section contains around 800 khachkars (cross-stones), the oldest dating to the late 10th century. Many more were carved during the revival of the khachkar tradition in the 16th and 17th centuries. The cemetery is still in use and is known as a forest of khachkars.
