About

The Palace of Seyid Mirbabayev is a palace in Azneft Square, Baku, Azerbaijan. It was owned by Seyid Mirbabayev, a singer who became one of the oil millionaires of Azerbaijan. The building was built in the style of French Renaissance architecture based on the architect Pavel Stern's project. The plasticity of the facade, the shape of the architectural detail, the individuality of the stone procession, the building culture have shaped the aesthetic environment in the image of the building.
