Togh's Melikian Palace (Toghi Melikakan Aparank), also known as the Palace of Melik Yegan or the Palace of Dizak Meliks (Azerbaijani: Dizaq mliklrinin sarayı) is an 18th-century palace, located in the central part of the village of Togh (Tugh), in the formerly disputed region of Nagorno-Karabakh. According to an inscription in the palace buildings, the structure was built in the early 1700s by Melik Yegan, an Armenian melik of Dizak. Prior to the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war, the property was maintained by a descendant of Melik Yegan, Alexander Yeganyan.
