Baku Turkish Martyrs' Memorial, War memorial in central Baku, Azerbaijan.
The memorial features a two-story octagonal structure constructed from red granite and white marble, with a surrounding alley displaying names of fallen soldiers.
Inaugurated in 1999 by Presidents Süleyman Demirel and Heydar Aliyev, this memorial honors Turkish soldiers who died during World War I in Azerbaijan.
Four white marble stars and crescents adorn the main faces of the monument, reflecting the national symbol of Turkey and military service recognition.
The memorial grounds include informative displays about specific soldiers, making it an educational destination for understanding Turkish-Azerbaijani military cooperation.
A mosque built by the Turkish Presidency of Religious Affairs stands next to the monument, though it has remained closed since April 2009.
