Gizilkend(Azerbaijani: Qızılkənd) (also, Kizilkend and Kyzylkend; old name Semënovka[1]) is a village and municipality in the Imishli Rayon of Azerbaijan.

The name of Gizilkend is directly related to the name of the early medieval fortress-settlement Giziltepe located in the territory of the settlement.

The village of Gizilkend existed at the foot of the hill until the late 1930s, but was later deported to Kazakhstan by the vast majority of the population.

In the first years of Azerbaijan's independence after the collapse of the USSR, on February 7, 1991, the historical name of the village was restored by a relevant decision.

The purpose of the Russian settlement in the village was the complete severance of ties with the Turks of South Azerbaijan and the policy of Russification of the territories.

The population consists entirely of the oldest inhabitants of Azerbaijan and the Caucasus in general - (95%) Tarakamas from the nomadic tribes of the Caspian Turks, and partly from the Talysh who came here from the Lerik and Astara regions during World War II.
