Lerik Region Museum of Longevity

The Lerik Region Museum of Longevity is a unique cultural institution in Lerik, Azerbaijan, dedicated to the extraordinary longevity of people from the region. The museum showcases exhibits documenting the lives, personal items, and photographs of many local centenarians and long‑lived residents — including stories of those who lived beyond 100 years. Established in 1991 and renovated in 2010, the museum now has two exhibition halls with over a thousand exhibits that highlight this remarkable demographic phenomenon. It illustrates both the personal histories and cultural heritage of Lerik’s long‑lived inhabitants and attracts visitors interested in human longevity and local traditions.
