House-Museum of Uzeyir Hajibeyov

House-Museum of Uzeyir Hajibeyov, Biographical museum in Baku, Azerbaijan.

The House-Museum of Uzeyir Hajibeyov occupies the house at 67/69 Shamil Azizbekov Street where the composer lived from 1915 to 1942. It has two buildings: a memorial building with four exhibition rooms, a glass veranda and a cinema hall, and an administrative building with an exhibition hall, library, archive and record library. The memorial building was renovated from 2005 and the administrative building added in 2007.

The museum opened on 20 November 1975 in the house at Shamil Azizbekov Street 67/69 where Hajibeyov lived from 1915 to 1942. It was created on the initiative of Heydar Aliyev, then first secretary of the Communist Party of Azerbaijan. In this house the composer wrote many works, including the opera Koroghlu. Painter Kazim Kazimzade and architect Eduard Kruiki worked on the museum's design.

The house holds the composer's personal and household items, gathered on the initiative of Ramazan Hamzat oglu Khalilov, who had been Hajibeyov's personal secretary and later directed the museum. The memorial building keeps four exhibition rooms, a glass veranda and a cinema hall where films about his life are shown.

The museum is located near Nizami metro station on Shamil Azizbekov Street and contains multiple exhibition spaces along with a cinema hall. Visitors should allow adequate time to thoroughly explore all the different areas on display.

The collection includes silver dishes, copper bowls, and a gramophone that belonged to the composer. These objects reveal his personal taste and show how he furnished and decorated his living space.
