The Azerbaijan National Art Museum is a treasure house that preserves  national moral values and cultural heritage. The museum holds more than 17,000 artistic exhibits, which have a rich history. The Art department was separated from the Azerbaijan State Museum in 1936 and organized as an independent museum by decision of the Council of People's Commissars. 

In 2006 thorough restoration work was carried out to the building and in 2009 a new exhibition was opened.
