Goygol, Mountain city in northwestern Azerbaijan.
The city of Goygol stands at an elevation of 697 meters, surrounded by mountains and forests near Lake Goygol in Azerbaijan.
German settlers from Württemberg established the city in 1819 under Czar Alexander I's instruction, initially naming it Helenendorf.
The architectural heritage combines German Lutheran influences with traditional Azerbaijani elements, including the Saint John's Church built in 1857.
The Goygol region maintains numerous marked hiking trails connecting various peaks, with the Chiragli trail offering mountain exploration opportunities.
The Goygol Winery, founded in 1860, continues to produce wines using methods introduced by the original German settlers to Azerbaijan.
