The Last City

In 1924 Alexandropol received the name Leninakan. On October 22, 1926, the first earthquake occurred. In the same year, the first cinema was opened in the city, which was named "October" in honor of the Great October Revolution. On December 7, 1988, the second earthquake occurred. Two years later, the Soviet Union was gone. And only the cinema withstood two earthquakes, remaining a symbol of the era.
