MOORAT-RAPHAEL, COLLEGIO ARMENO. - È la fusione di due collegi fondati in tempi diversi: il Collegio M. venne fondato a Padova il 4 sett. 1834 con i lasciti dell'armeno Samuel Moorat, e nel 1846 fu trasferito a Parigi dove rimase fino alla guerra franco-prussiana del 1870.The R. College was founded in Venice on September 11, 1836, with the munificent support of the Armenian Edward Raphael. In 1870 the two Colleges were united into a single one under the name Armenian College M.-R., with its seat in Venice in the Palazzo Zenobio.
The purpose of the College is to provide for the education of Armenian youth in Armenian letters and in the sciences. In its hundred-year history the M.-R. College has been a center of national and moral rebirth, and thousands of pupils held honorable offices in the Ottoman, Iranian, Egyptian governments, etc. In 1897 it received parity from the State.
