Tsitsernavank is a fifth-to-sixth century Armenian Apostolic monastery located in the Lachin District of Azerbaijan, situated within five kilometers of the Armenia-Azerbaijan border in a region historically known as Kashataghk. Built according to Armenian architectural principles, the monastery stands as a cultural heritage monument, though its Armenian identity remains contested—Azerbaijan refers to it by the Azerbaijani name Aghoghlan and disputes its Armenian Apostolic designation.
