Caravanserai of Agha Gahraman Mirsiyab Oghlu(Azerbaijani: Ağa Qəhrəman Mirsiyab oğlunun karvansarası) also known as the Masjidli Caravanserai, is located at 31 M.F. Akhundov Street in the city of Shusha.[1][2] The caravanserai has been registered as an important historical and cultural monument of the country by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism of the Republic of Azerbaijan.

The caravanserai was built in the 1880s with funds from the famous Shusha merchant Agha Gahraman Mirsiyab Oghlu. The main facade of the caravanserai, located near the edge of the steep rock, opens onto Rasta Bazaar Street, the central commercial street of Shusha. The second floor of the building had 25 rooms intended for merchants, while the first floor had commercial offices and nearly 30 shops. During the Soviet era, the caravanserai was used as a collective farm market (Azerbaijani: Kolxoz bazarı).
