The Gusman Family
Memorial Board of Solomon Gusman
Another important point on the Jewish map of Baku is the memorial board on Alovsat Guliyev Street to Solomon Gusman and Lola Barsuk, located on the facade of the house where they lived. Both were outstanding members of Baku’s Jewish community. Solomon Gusman, born on 9th May 1904, was a famous doctor who served in the Caspian Flotilla and as a military doctor during World War II. His wife Lola Barsuk, born on 7th April 1916, was a famous linguist and researcher.
