Dagestan Museum of Carpet and Decorative Applied Arts
About museum
The “Carpet and Decorative Applied Arts” Museum is located in a unique 19th-century architectural monument — an Armenian-Gregorian church built in 1860 to a design by the democratic writer G. Sundukyan. The exhibition, arranged in five sections, presents exhibits illustrating the main types of crafts and trades of Derbent and Dagestan in the 19th–20th centuries: ceramic production, chased copperware, Dagestan carpet art of the 19th–20th centuries, wood carving, and silver items by Dagestani masters.
