An educational tour of the National Museum of History of Azerbaijan was organised for beneficiaries of the DOST Inclusive Development and Creativity Centre, operating under the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection of the Population of the Republic of Azerbaijan, as well as young volunteers.
During the visit, participants explored the museum’s exhibition and learned about the key stages of Azerbaijan’s history, from ancient times to the present day. They also visited the Memorial Museum of Haji Zeynalabdin Taghiyev, where they viewed materials documenting the life and activities of this prominent Azerbaijani philanthropist.
Particular attention was given to exhibits related to the First and Second Karabakh Wars. Participants learned about personal belongings and commemorative items belonging to fallen servicemen and other participants in the military operations.
The tour was conducted by Gunay Umarova, a guide from the Department of Popularisation of Azerbaijani History and Organisation of Excursions at the National Museum of History of Azerbaijan.
The visit provided participants with an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of Azerbaijan’s rich historical and cultural heritage, the lives and contributions of prominent figures, and significant events in the country’s contemporary history.
