The Museum Centre, Cultural museum building on Neftchilar Avenue, Baku, Azerbaijan.
The Museum Centre is a building with multiple exhibition halls on Neftchilar Avenue featuring marble floors and large windows. The halls display regional art collections in a bright and open environment.
The institution was founded in 1955 and marked a period of architectural development in post-war Azerbaijan under Soviet influence. The building was designed by the renowned architect Hasan Ali oglu Mecidov.

The halls are bright and easy to navigate, with large windows providing natural light throughout. You can move at your own pace and spend as much time as you want in the exhibition areas.
