Summary
The Mausoleum of Khoja Ahmed Yasawi, a significant historical and cultural site, underwent substantial transformations during the 19th and early 20th centuries, reflecting its strategic importance under the Kokand Khanate and Russian Empire. This study reveals how political shifts influenced its restoration, architectural adaptations, and fortifications, drawing on rare contemporary accounts by researchers like M.S. Bekchurin, P.I. Lerhom, and I.I. Pashino, as well as visual documentation from V.V. Vereshchagin's Turkestan Album. The research synthesizes historical observations with modern scholarly analyses (e.g., P.N. Akhmerova, A. Divaeva) to reconstruct its evolving state during a pivotal era of Central Asian history.
