History

For the first time, Sattar Bahlulzade's House Museum was organized in a two-minaret mosque built in 1981 by oil trader Murtuza Mukhtarov in the village of Amirjan where the artist was born. There the personal things and copies of the paintings were presented.

In 1989, the artist's house-museum was closed due to the restoration of the mosques` activity, and his works and personal belongings were transferred to the Azerbaijan State Art Museum named after Rustam Mustafayev.

The museum was created in accordance with the relevant decree of the national leader Heydar Aliyev in 1994. On May 23, 2014, in the village of Amirjan, Surakhani district of Baku, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism hosted an opening ceremony after the renovation, restoration and exposition of the house-museum.
