About
Ibrahim Khalil Khan palace was a square building and was surrounded on four sides by castle walls. Semicircular towers open from inside are located at four corners of castle walls. Servants who served the people living in the palace lived in the residential buildings connected to the towers, inside the palace.
The main entrance to the north of the castle is protected by a prismatic volume. From this point of view, the entrance of the castle repeats the technique applied at Ganja Gate of Shusha fortress. This type of construction technique strengthens the protection of the door and reduces the possibility of direct access to it to zero.
All the buildings included in the palace complex are covered with arches and ceilings made of small well-hewn stones.
Entrance door construction: door stone made of solid stone (2.40 x 0.70 x 0.45 m) stands on a door frame made of solid stone and 2.10 meters high. There is a relief arch made of well-hewn stones on the door frame. The tympanum of the arch is made of large rough stones with idol masonry. This kind of entrance doors is widespread in the architecture of Shusha.
