Tigran Melikov's House (Azerbaijani: Tiqran Məlikovun evi) is a historic mansion located at the crossing of Islam Safarli and Hazi Aslanov streets in Baku, Azerbaijan. The mansion was built between 1895 and 1897 on the order of Tigran Melikov, a son of the Armenian industrialist Ambarsum Melikov. It is the first building built in the Gothic style in Baku,[1][2] as well as Józef Gosławski's first project on personal order.[3]
In 1813, while establishing the outer-city, the area was given the architectural look of a square, which is still preserved. The mansion was built at crossing of Islam Safarli and Hazi Aslanov streets. Melikov's mansion was the first building to be built in gothic style in Baku. While building the mansion, Adolf Eichler was preparing plan of a gothic styled church in 28 May Street.
