Ganja Men's Gymnasium (Azerbaijani: Gəncə kişi gimnaziyası, Russian: Гянджинская мужская гимназия), or Elizavetpol Men's Gymnasium (Azerbaijani: Yelizavetpol kişi gimnaziyası, Russian: Елизаветпольская мужская гимназия), was a men-only gymnasium that existed in the city of Yelisavetpol (modern-day Ganja) from 1881 to 1920. The faculty of Agriculture and Management of the Azerbaijan State Agricultural University currently operates in the building of the former gymnasium.

History

[edit]

The three-storey building of the gymnasium was built in 1848 in the Gothic style. The classical gymnasium was established in 1870 on the basis of Elizavetpol uezd School.[1] It started to operate as a men's gymnasium in 1881.[2][3]

With the Azerbaijan Democratic Republic (ADR) declaring its independence, the gymnasium was renamed to Ganja Men's Gymnasium. In 1919, German, French, Turkish, Armenian, Latin and Polish language courses were organized at the gymnasium.[4] During ADR rule, the number of Muslim students in the school increased significantly, and in 1919, parallel departments were opened in the preparatory courses.[5]

The gymnasium was closed in 1920.[6] From 1920 to 1930, there was a secondary technical vocational school in the building of the gymnasium. In 1931, the building of the gymnasium was transferred to the balance of the Agricultural Institute and became the building of the faculty of Agrarian Economy. The faculty of Agriculture and Management of the Azerbaijan State Agricultural University currently operates in the building of the former gymnasium.[1]

Azerbaijani authorities stated that the building was damaged as result of Armenian shelling in 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh War.[7][third-party source needed]
