International Exhibition “Traditional Culture of the Kazakh people” to Open at the National Museum of History of Azerbaijan
On November 13, 2026, the National Museum of History of Azerbaijan will host the opening of the international exhibition “Traditional Culture of the Kazakhs”, organized by the National Central Museum of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
The exhibition will feature ethnographic artefacts from the collection of the National Central Museum of the Republic of Kazakhstan, reflecting the traditional way of life of the Kazakh people, their domestic culture, and craftsmanship traditions.
The exhibition will introduce visitors to the historical characteristics of Kazakh nomadic culture and the centuries-old ethnocultural traditions of the Great Steppe. The exhibits will include traditional household utensils and implements, horse tack and equestrian equipment, jewellery, examples of felt-making and textile craftsmanship, traditional clothing, and personal adornments.
The artefacts on display will offer insights into the material culture of the Kazakh people, traditional craft techniques, ornamental motifs, and aesthetic values. They will also illustrate the continuity of ethnocultural traditions and their transmission from one generation to the next.
The exhibition in Baku will contribute to strengthening cultural ties between Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan, fostering cooperation between museums, and promoting the shared historical and cultural heritage of the Turkic peoples.
The official opening ceremony will take place on November 13, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. at the National Museum of History of Azerbaijan.
The exhibition will run until December 12, 2026.
