Huseyn Javid's House Museum is a scientific research institute incorporated into the Science Department of the Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences (ANAS). The museum was created at the house where Azerbaijani poet and playwright Huseyn Javid lived during 1920–1937.[1]
The home museum was created with the aim of perpetuating and promoting the life and activity of the philosopher, playwright Huseyn Javid under the leadership of Heydar Aliyev. The opening of this museum was considered according to the decree “On 100th Anniversary of Huseyn Javid" by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Azerbaijan on July 21, 1981.[2] According to the decision of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Azerbaijan No. 160 dated July 10, 1995, Huseyn Javid's House Museum was created and subordinated to the Azerbaijan Academy of Sciences.
