Hüseyn Cavidin Ev Muzeyi

TIME : 2016/2/18 16:23:39

This little house-museum commemorates Hüseyn Cavid (1882–1941), a progressive Azeri playwright who died in Stalin-era Siberian exile. The museum’s collection is of limited appeal to foreigners but the wooden homestead makes an appealingly calm oasis. The writer’s remains were very symbolically brought back to Naxçivan in 1982 and are now entombed in a conspicuous white marble mausoleum outside.
