Askeran is a town de jure in the Khojaly District of Azerbaijan, de facto in the self-proclaimed Republic of Artsakh as the administrative centre of its Askeran Province. The town has an ethnic Armenian-majority population, and also had an Armenian majority in 1989.
The Askeran Fortress , built by the Karabakh Khanate ruler Panah Ali Khan in 1751, is situated in the southern part of the town. During the Russo-Persian War of 1804–1813 the Russian encampment was near the fortress. In 1810 the peace talks between the Russians and Persians were conducted at the fortress. It was renovated in 2002.
