The House of Hasan-Jalalyan (in Armenian: Հասան-Ջալալյաններ) was an Armenian dynasty that ruled the regions of Artsakh and Khachen from the thirteenth century AD onwards in what is now the regions of lower Karabakh, Nagorno-Karabakh and Zangezur.[1] It was named after Hasan Jalal Dawla (Հասան-Ջալալ Դոլա), an Armenian feudal prince from Khachen. His ancestry stretched back several centuries which included the Armenian Bagratuni kings in Ani to the Arsacid Dynasty of Armenia.[2]

Their reign was concentrated between the Terter and the Khachenaget rivers. Jalal's birth date is unknown however his reign, beginning in 1214 and ending at the time of his death 1260 in Ghazvin, encompassed both Artsakh and the surrounding Armenian regions.[3] He was addressed with the titles tagavor (king, թագավոր) or eenknakal (self-ruling or autonomous leader, ինքնակալ).

They funded numerous architectural and cultural projects which continue to stand today, including the Gandzasar monastery, erected under Jalal's rule and christened on July 22, 1240, and the Church of St. John the Baptist. The monastery at Gandzasar went on to become the residence and sepulcher of the family. In the late 16th century, the family established melikdoms in the settlements of Jraberd, Khachen and Gulistan. During the Turko-Persian wars of the the 17th and 18th centuries, the meliks fiercely resisted and fought back against incursions made by either side. In the latter quarter of the 18th century, they aided the invading Russian armies to help clear the region of both the Turks and Persians.

Other artifacts that remain include Jalal Dawla's personal dagger, which has since been preserved and is currently on display at the Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg, Russia.
