there was an alliance between panah ali khan and melik shahnazar the local armenian prince melik of varanda 4 the nearby armenian village of shosh see etymology for further information has been suggested as an origin of the town s name 5 the town has been described as an important center within the armenian melikdoms of karabakh in the 1720s 6 and the plateau has been suggested to have been the site of an already existing armenian fortification 7 from the mid 18th century to 1822 shusha was the capital of the karabakh khanate the town became one of the cultural centers of the south caucasus after the russian conquest of the caucasus region from qajar iran in the first half of the 19th century 8 over the course of the 19th century the town grew in size to become a city and was home to many armenian and azerbaijani intellectuals poets writers and musicians including azerbaijani ashiks mugham singers and kobuz players 9 10 the town has religious cultural and strategic importance to both groups shusha is often considered the cradle of azerbaijan s music and poetry and one of the leading centres of the azerbaijani culture 11 12 shusha also contains a number of armenian apostolic churches including ghazanchetsots cathedral and kanach zham demolished by azerbaijan as of 2026 and serves as a land link between nagorno karabakh and armenia via the lachin corridor to the west 13 throughout modern history the city fostered a mixed armenian azerbaijani population the first available demographic information about the city in 1823 suggests the city had an azerbaijani majority 14 the armenian inhabitants of the city steadily grew over time to constitute a majority of the city s population until the shusha massacre in 1920 in which the armenian half of the city was destroyed by azerbaijani forces resulting in the death or expulsion of the armenian population up to 20 000 people 15 16 17 the city has suffered significant destruction and depopulation

cultural heritage of the city was being destroyed 21 22 23 etymology several historians believe shusha derives from the new persian shīsha glass vessel bottle flask 24 25 according to the oxford concise dictionary of world place names when iranian ruler agha mohammad khan qajar approached the town with his army he reportedly told the ruler of karabakh ibrahim khalil khan god is pouring stones on thy head sit ye not then in thy fortress of glass 24 panahabad city of panah shusha s previous name was a tribute to panah ali khan the first ruler of the karabakh khanate 24 according to the brockhaus and efron encyclopedic dictionary published in the final decades of the russian empire the town s name comes from the nearby village shushikent 26 called shosh in armenian which literally means shusha village in the azerbaijani language conversely the armenian historian leo 1860 1932 considered it more likely that the village shosh received its name from the fortress which he considered the older settlement 27 according to armenian sources the name shusha most likely derives from the dialectal armenian word shosh shush armenian շոշ շուշ meaning tree sprout or figuratively a high place first applied either to the adjacent village shosh or to shusha itself 28 29 the form shusha can also be explained as the genitive form of shosh shush as a or ay is a common declensional ending for placenames in pre modern and dialectal armenian 29 besides the common armenian name shushi the town has historically been referred to in armenian by various names including shoshi shushva berd shoshi sghnakh shoshvaghala which all mean shosh shushi fortress 30 history foundation saint john the baptist church kanach zham built in 1818 the church was demolished by azerbaijan by 2024 yukhari govhar agha mosque completed in 1885 some armenian sources identify shusha with a fortress called shikakar or karaglukh where the 9th century armenian prince sahl smbatean is said to have defeated an invading arab army 30 31 according to several sources a settlement called shosh served as an ancient fortress in the armenian principality of varanda and had traditionally belonged to the melik shahnazarian princely dynasty 7 32 33 according to some sources shushi existed and had a functioning scriptorium in 1428 34 35 the fortress was described as a strategic stronghold in one of the eastern armenian military districts called sghnakhs playing a key role in the armenian commander avan yuzbashi s campaign against ottoman forces during their incursion into of the south caucasus in the 1720s and 1730s 36 armenian historian and shusha native ashot hovhannisian wrote that the fortress walls must have been built by avan yuzbashi in 1724 if not earlier 27 kehva chelebi an early armenian national activist who maintained correspondence between the meliks of karabakh and the russian authorities in a 1725 report describes shusha as a town and a fort the nearest armenian stronghold was shushi shushi is four days distance from shemakhi armed armenians under the command of avan yuzbashi guard it after meeting with the armenian leaders including the patriarch they returned to derbent via shemakhi rocky mountains surround the town of shushi the number of the armed armenians has not been determined there are rumors that the armenians have defeated the turks in a number of skirmishes in karabagh 37 a 1769 letter by georgian king heraclius ii to russian diplomat count p panin states that there was an ancient fortress in the realm of the khamsa melikdoms which was conquered through deceit by one muslim man from the jevanshir tribe 32 the same information about the ancient fortress is confirmed by the russian field marshal alexander suvorov in a letter to prince grigory potemkin 38 39 suvorov writes that the armenian prince melik shahnazar of varanda surrendered his fortress shushikala to certain panah whom he called a chief of nomadic muslims living near the karabakh borders 38 when discussing karabakh and shusha in the 18th century the russian diplomat and historian s m bronevsky writes in his historical notes that shusha fortress was a possession of the melik shahnazarian clan which was given to panah ali khan in return for aid against the other armenian meliks of karabakh 40 russian historian p g butkov 1775 1857 writes that shushi village was given to panah ali khan by the melik shahnazarian prince after they entered into an alliance and that panah ali khan fortified the village 41 42 the missionary joseph wolff 1795 1862 during his mission in the middle east visited shushee in the province of carabagh in armenia major 43 the palace of khurshidbanu natavan the daughter of the last ruler of karabakh khanate late 19th early 20th centuries the armenian quarters of shusha with the ghazanchetsots cathedral in the background in the early 20th century before their destruction by azerbaijani military units in 1920 some sources including mirza jamal javanshir mirza adigozal bey abbasgulu bakikhanov and mirza yusuf nersesov attest to the foundation of the town in 1750 1752 according to other sources 1756 1757 by panah ali khan r 1748 1763 the founder and the first ruler of the karabakh khanate 1748 1822 which comprised both lowland and highland karabakh 44 45 the mid 18th century foundation is supported by the second edition of the encyclopaedia of islam 3 and the brockhaus and efron encyclopedic dictionary 5 according to mirza jamal javanshir the author of the persian language text history of karabakh 46 one of the most significant chronicles on the history of karabakh in 18th 19th centuries the karabakh nobility assembled to discuss the danger of invasion from iran and told panah ali khan we must build among the impassable mountains such an inviolable and inaccessible fort so that no strong enemy could take it melik shahnazar of varanda who was the first of the armenian meliks dukes to accept the suzerainty of panah ali khan and who would remain his loyal supporter suggested a location for the new fortress thus panahabad shusha was founded according to mirza jamal javanshir before panah ali khan constructed the fortress there were no buildings there and it was used as cropland and pasture by the people of the nearby village of shoshi 46 47 panah khan resettled to shusha the population of shahbulag and some nearby villages and built strong fortifications 47 another account is presented by raffi 1835 1888 an armenian novelist and historian in his work the princedoms of khamsa which asserts that the place where shushi was built was desolate and uninhabited before panah ali khan s arrival he states panah ali khan and melik shahnazar of varanda soon completed the construction 1762 of the fortress and moved the armenian population of the nearby village of shosh called also shoshi or shushi into the fortress 48 conflict with the qajars see also battle of krtsanisi 19th century map although panah ali khan had been in conflict with nader shah the new ruler of persia adil shah issued a firman decree recognizing panah ali as the khan of karabakh 49 less than a year after shusha was founded the karabakh khanate was attacked by mohammad hassan khan qajar one of the major claimants to the iranian throne during the safavid empire karabakh was for almost two centuries ruled by ziyad oglu family of the clan of qajars of turkic origin 50 muhammed hassan khan besieged shusha panahabad at that time but soon had to retreat because of the attack on his territory by his major opponent karim khan zand his retreat was so hasty that he even left his cannons under the walls of shusha fortress panah ali khan counterattacked the retreating troops of mohammad hassan khan and even briefly took ardabil across the aras river in 1756 or 1759 shusha and the karabakh khanate underwent a new attack from fath ali khan afshar ruler of urmia with his 30 000 strong army fath ali khan also managed to gain support from the meliks of jraberd and talish gulistan however melik shahnazar of varanda continued to support panah ali khan the siege of shusha lasted for six months and fath ali khan eventually had to retreat when karim khan zand took control of much of iran he forced panah ali khan to come to shiraz capital of zand ruled iran where he died as a hostage 51 panah ali khan s son ibrahim khalil khan was sent back to karabakh as governor 52 under him the karabakh khanate became one of the strongest state formations clarification needed and shusha grew according to travellers who visited shusha at the end of 18th early 19th centuries the town had about 2 000 houses and approximately 10 000 population citation needed shusha fortress in 2021 in summer 1795 shusha was subjected to a major attack by agha mohammad khan qajar son of mohammad hassan khan who had attacked shusha in 1752 agha mohammad khan qajar s goal was to end with the feudal fragmentation and to restore the old safavid state in iran citation needed by early 1795 he had already secured mainland iran and was directly afterwards poised to bring the entire caucasus region back within the iranian domains 53 for this purpose he also wanted to proclaim himself shah of iran however according to the safavid tradition the shah had to take control over the whole of south caucasus and dagestan before his coronation citation needed therefore the karabakh khanate and its fortified capital shusha were the first and major obstacle to achieve these ends agha mohammad khan qajar besieged shusha with the centre part of a 70 000 strong army after having crossed the aras river 54 the right and left wings were sent to resubjugate shirvan dagestan and erivan respectively agha mohammad khan himself led the centre part of the main army besieging shusha between 8 july and 9 august 1795 55 ibrahim khalil khan mobilized the population for a long term defence the number of militia in shusha reached 15 000 citation needed women fought together with men citation needed the armenian population of karabakh also actively participated in this struggle against the iranians and fought side by side with the muslim population jointly organizing ambushes in the mountains and forests citation needed the siege lasted for 33 days not being able to capture shusha agha mohammad khan ceased the siege 56 and advanced to tiflis present day tbilisi which despite desperate resistance was occupied and exposed to unprecedented destruction ibrahim khalil khan eventually surrendered to mohammad khan after negotiations including the paying of regular tribute and to surrender hostages although the qajar forces were still denied entrance to shusha 56 since the main objective was georgia mohammad khan was willing to have karabakh secured by this agreement for now for he and his army subsequently moved further 56 in 1797 agha mohammad shah qajar having successfully resubjugated georgia and the wider caucasus and having declared himself shah decided to carry out a second attack on karabakh trying to avenge his previous humiliating defeat agha mohammad shah devastated the surrounding villages near shusha the population had not recovered from the previous 1795 attack and also suffered from a serious drought which lasted for three years the artillery of the attackers also inflicted serious losses on the city defenders thus in 1797 agha mohammad shah succeeded in seizing shusha and ibrahim khalil khan had to flee to dagestan however several days after the seizure
