History

The first building of the station dates back to 1880 with the launch of the Baku-Tbilisi railway. In 1926, the second station complex, Sabunchu Station, was designed and constructed to serve the electrified Baku - Sabunchu Railway passengers. The architecture of the building is also in the Oriental style. In 1967, the building of the subway station "May 28" joined the building of Sabunchu station. In 1977, the station underwent a major renovation, during which a new modern station building was built, closely adjacent to the building of the old Tiflis station.
