İrmaşlı (pronounced Irmashly) is a large village and municipality in the Shamkir Rayon of Azerbaijan. It has a population of 4,001.

==History== İrmaşlı combines an ancient Azerbaijani settlement with the 19th-century German 'colony' village of Eigenfeld (spelled as Eichenfeld or Aigenfeld in some sources). In 1932 the place was renamed Engelskənd in honour of socialist philosopher Friedrich Engels but after Azerbaijan's independence in 1992 it reverted to the traditional name of İrmaşlı which locals believe is derived from a semi-mythical visit of Roman soldiers to this place in the 1st century.
