The House of Khurshidbanu Natavan (Azerbaijani: Xurşidbanu Natəvanın evi), also known as the Palace of Natavan, Daughter of the Khan (Azerbaijani: Xan qızı Natəvanın sarayı), is an 18th or 19-thcentury historical and architectural monument, and a museum in Shusha, Azerbaijan.
The three-storey house, being one of the first residential houses in Shusha, belonged to the 19th-century Azerbaijani speaking poet Khurshidbanu Natavan. During Soviet rule, it served as a music and art school, and later, as a house-museum dedicated to Natavan. The building was heavily damaged when the Armenian forces captured Shusha in 1992, during the First Nagorno-Karabakh War, while the Azerbaijani authorities accused the Armenian forces of looting the building.
The building has an architecture atypical for the other residential buildings in Shusha. Constructed with stone, and in a smaller scale, brick, it is filled with frescoes and alabaster carvings. The house also has a large garden, which houses various smaller buildings intended for home service.
