Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary's Immaculate Conception, Roman Catholic temple in Baku, Azerbaijan
The Church of the Immaculate Conception stands with neo-Gothic architecture elements and features a statue of the Virgin Mary at its entrance point.
Polish architect Józef Płoszko designed the original church in 1912, which operated until 1935 when Soviet authorities closed and later demolished the structure.
The church reopening in 2007 marked the revival of Catholic worship in Azerbaijan, serving both local and international faithful communities in Baku.
The religious complex spans 1256 square meters and contains 200 benches, accommodating up to 300 worshippers with modern heating and ventilation systems.
The church bells were presented as a gift from Polish President Lech Kaczyński, establishing a connection between Poland and Azerbaijan's Catholic heritage.
