Azerbaijan State Philharmonic Hall, Renaissance concert hall in central Baku, Azerbaijan.

The Azerbaijan State Philharmonic Hall features Italian Renaissance exterior architecture and German Rococo interior design across its two performance spaces.

The building, designed by architect Gavriil Ter-Mikelov, opened in 1912 as a club for Baku's elite and later served as parliament during Azerbaijan's first republic.

The Philharmonic Hall maintains seven performing groups, including the Azerbaijan State Symphony Orchestra and the State Folk Song and Dance Ensemble.

The venue contains two performance spaces: the Summer Hall with 1,100 seats and the Winter Hall with 610 seats, connected through a shared stage.

The building's design draws direct architectural inspiration from the Monte Carlo Casino and its Opera House, incorporating similar structural elements and decorative features.
