Divan-Khana

Divankhana is the classical piece of Shirvanshahs’ Palace.The delicate stone carving arabesques of the monument have been admiring the visitors for centuries. The relief depth of the patterns reachs to 4-5 centimetres in some places. There are holy words of the muslims inside the hexagonal medallions on the right and left side of the portal written in Middle Ages arabic “Kufic” script and they create rhombs. The incomplete construction of Divankhana due to the political events of that period is still debatable.
