Goygol District, Administrative district in western Azerbaijan
The district comprises 27 administrative units across mountainous terrain, reaching elevations of 3,724 meters in the Lesser Caucasus mountain range.
German settlers from Württemberg established Helenendorf in 1819, developing the region into a notable wine production center during the following decades.
The district maintains several cultural centers, libraries, and museums, including the History-Ethnography Museum housed in an 1856 Lutheran church building.
The region experiences warm summers and mild winters, with temperatures averaging 24.2°C in July and 1.1°C in January at its capital city.
Lake Goygol formed after an earthquake in 1139, creating a natural water reservoir that became central to the district's identity.
