The Azerbaijan Medicine Museum has been in operation since January 29, 1986, as per Order No. 162 of the Ministry of Health of the Azerbaijan SSR. Its establishment aimed to shed light on and preserve an essential aspect of Azerbaijani cultural heritage—the history of medicine and healthcare development in the republic, along with the notable contributions of Azerbaijani scientists to both national and global science.
Situated within the premises of the former Karashaher hospital, where the esteemed statesman Nariman Narimanov practiced medicine from 1914 to 1917, the museum serves as a significant hub for showcasing this heritage. With a total of 13,845 items housed in its collection, the museum’s treasury continuously grows with the addition of new materials.
Regular visitors to the museum include students from the Azerbaijan Medical University, doctors from the Medical Training Institute, students from secondary medical educational institutions, as well as foreign guests and local citizens, all contributing to the ongoing appreciation and understanding of Azerbaijan’s medical legacy.

"The Ashabi-Kahf"

The Ashabi-Kahf sanctuary is located approximately 12 km from the city of Nakhchivan, in the Julfa district, between the Hachadag and Nahajir mountains, at an altitude of 1665 meters above sea level. Studies have confirmed that the “Ashabi-Kahf” cave mentioned in the Holy Quran is situated in Nakhchivan.
The name “Ashabi-Kahf” is derived from the Arabic language. “Ashab” means “adolescent boys,” and “kahf” means “cave” or “place of refuge.” “Ashabi-Kahf” is not only a shrine but also one of the oldest historical monuments in Azerbaijan. The shrine comprises several parts, including “Yeddi Kisena,” “Garden of Paradise,” “Black Stone,” “Damcikhana,” and a Mosque.
Under the directive of the esteemed leader Heydar Aliyev, improvement and restoration works were carried out at the shrine. At the entrance of the shrine, an inscription informs visitors that the “restoration and beautification works at the Ashabi-Kahf shrine were conducted in 1998 under the order and patronage of the honorable President of Azerbaijan, Heydar Aliyev.”

"Gavurgala"

Gavurgala stands as a testament to the rich historical tapestry of Azerbaijan, nestled in the southern expanse of Boyahmadli village within the Agdam district. Its significance reverberates through time, bearing witness to the flourishing civilizations that once thrived within its bounds.
Archaeological excavations in 1958 unveiled a profound archaeological treasure trove, revealing a remarkable cultural stratum spanning from the III to XI centuries. At the heart of this ancient settlement lies the resplendent Gavurgala church, a masterpiece of architectural prowess crafted from pristine white stone. Adorned with four majestic doors and a meticulously crafted stone floor, the church exudes a timeless elegance that epitomizes the evolution of architectural ingenuity within the city.
Within the temple precincts lie stone chest graves, one of which bears an inscription alluding to the final resting place of none other than the brother of Albanian ruler Grigor Hammam. This poignant detail offers a glimpse into the illustrious lineage that once graced the hallowed grounds of Gavurgala.
Scholars have embarked on a quest to unravel the enigma surrounding Gavurgala’s true appellation. Some conjecture that its proximity to a cemetery affiliated with the ruling lineage suggests a correlation with Aluen, renowned as the esteemed summer retreat of Albanian sovereigns. The presence of the Albanian ruler’s kin further strengthens this hypothesis, as Aluen served as the epicenter of religious and societal gatherings for Caucasian Albanians.
Situated along the bustling trade artery from Barda to Dabil (Dvina), Gavurgala occupied a strategic position along the medieval thoroughfare. Its significance transcends mere trade, as evidenced by the wealth of archaeological findings ranging from intricate weaving patterns to exquisite jewelry and fine pottery. This multifaceted repository of material culture underscores Gavurgala’s pivotal role as a hub of artisanal craftsmanship and cultural exchange.
In his assessment, Rashid Goyushov extols Gavurgala’s stature as one of the foremost bastions of religious and cultural vibrancy within Caucasian Albania. Its legacy endures as a beacon of heritage, beckoning forth the curious minds of historians and archaeologists alike, eager to unravel the mysteries veiled within its ancient stones.
