The liberation of Shusha is one of the historic events of exceptional significance in the centuries-old history of Azerbaijani statehood, the national memory of the Azerbaijani people and the course of the Patriotic War. Shusha, the crown of Garabagh and the cultural capital of Azerbaijan, renowned for its ancient history, rich cultural heritage and distinctive architectural traditions, regained its freedom on November 8, 2020, bringing an end to many years of occupation. This historic achievement, secured through an unprecedented military operation carried out by the Azerbaijani Army under the leadership of Victorious Commander-in-Chief Ilham Aliyev marked a decisive victory that shaped the outcome of the Patriotic War. The liberation of the city, distinguished by its mountainous terrain, challenging geographical conditions and strategic location, through a special military operation was a vivid demonstration of the heroism, professionalism, dedication and high fighting spirit of Azerbaijani soldiers. The city’s liberation holds profound symbolic significance not only for the restoration of Azerbaijan’s territorial integrity, but also for the Azerbaijani people’s reconnection with their historical and cultural heritage, national and spiritual values, and historical justice. Shusha, the birthplace of such prominent figures as Uzeyir Hajibeyli, Bulbul and Khurshidbanu Natavan, has reaffirmed its historic status as the cradle of Azerbaijani music, poetry, art and national culture. The virtual exhibition features documents and materials highlighting Shusha’s ancient and rich history, the destruction it suffered during the occupation, the struggle for the city’s liberation, the heroism of the Azerbaijani Army, and the restoration and reconstruction work carried out in the city following the Victory. “Shusha, you are free!” – this historic declaration has become a symbol of the Azerbaijani people’s pride, national unity, unwavering determination, and an enduring part of the chronicle of Victory.
