Description

Abstract

From the earliest times, only Azerbaijanis lived in the "Old" and "New Shusha" areas of the city of Shusha. Residential quarters were built around the Shusha fortress and the fortress was declared the capital of the Karabakh Khanate. Shusha Castle surrounds the historical center of the city. The castle, which has three main gates (Ganja, Iravan and Agoglan), is mentioned in all general plans of Shusha drawn in the 19th century. During the construction of the Shusha fortress, which is included in the reserve list of UNESCO, river stone, egg yolk and lime solution were used. A bridge with high architectural qualities was built near it, connecting the castle with the outside world.
