In this review I try to show the important role of the Byurakan Observatory in the discovery and detailed investigations of ultlaviolet excess (UV) galaxies, which are now the center of attention of many observatories. Most new Seyfert (Sy) galaxies by the end of the 1960s, when no more than ten of this type of galaxy were known, were discovered among UV galaxies. In addition, many unusual and interesting galaxies were also discovered among UV galaxies: double and multiple nucleus galaxies, double nucleus Sy galaxies, galaxies with jets, galaxies consisting only of Superassociations (giant HII regions), Sargent-Searle objects, BL Lacs and QSOs possessing a different type of activity according to Ambartsumian. The material presented here overlaps considerably that of some other talks delivered by the author in IAU Symposia Nos. 121 and 194.
