Lermontovo (Armenian: Լերմոնտովո) is a village in the Lori Province of Armenia.
The village is named after Russian poet Mikhail Lermontov, often called "the poet of the Caucasus". The village was previously known as Voskresenovka (Armenian: Վոսկրեսենովկա).
Like the neighboring village of Fioletovo, Lermontovo was settled in the mid-1800s by Spiritual Christians from Russia (Pryguny, Molokane).
