Underground Bath of Baku, Historic hammam near fortress gates in Icherisheher, Azerbaijan
The Underground Bath features two octagonal halls with domes containing light holes, constructed with gulbakh stone and limestone mortar for temperature regulation.
Archaeological excavations revealed lamps, clay fragments, coins from Baku and Shemakhi khanates, and items dating from the 18th to 20th centuries.
The bath complex demonstrates traditional Azerbaijani bathing practices, with separate areas for changing and bathing following historical gender segregation customs.
Located at 50 Boyuk Gala Street in Baku, the Underground Bath underwent extensive restoration between 2018 and 2020 by Austrian specialists.
The bath structure extends below ground level, utilizing architectural techniques that maintain constant temperature without modern climate control systems.
