Vagif Mausoleum, Constructivist mausoleum in Shusha, Azerbaijan
The Vagif Mausoleum stands 18 meters tall, constructed from reddish Karabakh marble plates combined with white and grey marble near the Jidir Duzu plain.
Built in 1982 under the direction of architect Abdulvahab Salamzadeh, the mausoleum commemorates Molla Panah Vagif, who served as vizier of the Karabakh Khanate.
The structure honors the legacy of Molla Panah Vagif, an Azerbaijani poet and diplomat who made substantial contributions to 18th-century literature and public affairs.
The mausoleum underwent complete restoration in 2021, making its architectural features and historical exhibits accessible to visitors interested in Azerbaijani heritage.
Aluminum decorations extend along the mausoleum's walls, with the poet's name prominently displayed above the entrance door in traditional script.
