Mehdi Huseynzade Monument, Bronze and granite monument in northern Baku, Azerbaijan.
The Mehdi Huseynzade Monument is a bronze and granite sculpture in Baku showing a military figure holding a weapon, standing on a rough granite block. The sculpture sits at a busy street intersection and can be seen from different angles.
The monument was created in 1973 to honor a partisan who resisted occupation during World War II. Sculptor Fuad Abdurahmanov and architect Mikayil Useynov designed the work.
The memorial shows a figure in military dress and recalls a resistance fighter who played an important role during World War II. Visitors can see here a place that holds meaning for local history and courage.
The monument sits at the corner of two main streets in northern Baku and is easy to reach on foot. You can photograph it from different angles and spot it from a distance as you approach the location.
The figure wears traditional Azerbaijani clothing from the era of the events, setting it apart from typical Soviet-style monuments. This detail makes the work an interesting example of how local identity was incorporated into the memorial design.
