The Azerbaijan Carpet Museum looks like a rolled up carpet. The museum was founded in 1967 and has around 10,000 carpets in its collection. The new carpet museum opened in 2014 and was designed by Austrian Franz Janz. The museum shows how carpets are made and presents the most important carpets in the collection. The Carpet Museum of Baku is well worth seeing because you can see not only traditional patterns, but also modern motifs such as pipelines, people and machines.

The Baku Carpet Museum is a unique museum dedicated to the rich history of carpet weaving, an integral part of Azerbaijan's national culture.

The museum is housed in a striking modern building shaped like a rolled-up carpet. Designed by Austrian architect Franz Janz, it opened in 2014.

The museum boasts the largest collection of Azerbaijani carpets in the world, with over 6,000 exhibits. The collection includes carpets, handwoven items, embroidery, clothing, and jewelry from various periods.

Founded in 1967, the museum was the first museum in the world specifically dedicated to carpet art.

The collection is spread over three floors. Exhibitions showcase the evolution of Azerbaijani carpet weaving, from simple woven mats to intricate rugs with detailed patterns. Live demonstrations by carpet weavers are also available.
