Nrnadzor (Armenian: Նռնաձոր) is a village in the Meghri Municipality of the Syunik Province in Armenia, on the bank of the Aras River.

History[]

The village of Nrnadzor (meaning "pomegranate canyon" in Armenian, also the name of a nearby tributary of the Aras) was previously called Nyuvadi (Armenian: Նյուվադի; Azerbaijani: Nüvədi), and until 1991 was populated mainly by Muslim Tats, who during Soviet times adopted the Azerbaijani language.[3]

During Tsarist times, the village was a part of the Zangezur Uyezd of the Elisabethpol Governorate. The village was transferred from the Azerbaijan SSR to the Armenian SSR in 1928.[3] The Azerbaijani-speaking population of the village fled in the summer of 1991 in the context of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, after which the village was repopulated by Armenians who fled from different parts of Azerbaijan.[3]
