The Azerbaijani Cultural Center in Vienna has been established in accordance with a Decree of President Ilham Aliyev dated 16 November 2012 to promote Azerbaijani culture in Austria. To provide the Austrian people with the opportunity to become better acquainted with Azerbaijan, there are plans to conduct various activities promoting the rich culture, arts and tourism opportunities of the country. The center will also operate Azerbaijani language courses. Anyone can use the services of a rich library and a multimedia library, which contains works of Azerbaijani authors Nizami, Nasimi, Mohammad Fizuli and other classics, as well as prominent contemporary writers and poets. Participants of music evenings to be held at the Centre on a regular basis will, along with Azerbaijani folk music, have the opportunity to listen to the works of Uzeyir Hajibayli, Gara Garayev, Fikrat Amirov, Arif Malikov and other famous composers, and enjoy the Azerbaijani mugam. During the exhibitions to be organized at the culture center, art lovers will be able to see the most interesting examples of Azerbaijani painting, sculpture and folk arts. One of the main objectives of the Center is to develop cooperation with culture, tourism and media institutions of Austria, establish close ties with the cultural centers of other countries already operating in this country, and contribute to intercultural dialogue.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Cultural Center set up in Vienna is yet another important step undertaken by the First Lady of Azerbaijan, President of the Heydar Aliyev Foundation Mrs. Mehriban Aliyeva to promote the country abroad.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

The new cultural center opens up opportunities for stepping up work in this area, manage it from a single point and ensure a more efficient operation.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

We recall that the first Azerbaijani cultural center abroad was opened in Paris with the participation of President Ilham Aliyev in September last year.<\/span><\/p>\n

Everyone interested in Azerbaijan is warmly welcome in Azerbaijani Cultural Centre in Vienna.<\/span><\/h3>\n
