Amirkabir Historical House
About This Museum
Tucked away in Hezaveh, the Amirkabir Historical House feels less like a formal museum and more like stepping directly into a cherished family story. What makes it so special is its deep, tangible connection to Mirza Taghi Khan Farahani, the great Amir Kabir—a statesman whose reforms still echo through modern Iran. The air in these rooms seems to hum with history, from the intimate living quarters to the more formal receiving areas where pivotal conversations once took place. It’s a quiet, personal place that invites you to linger and imagine the past.
Collection Highlights
You'll find his personal belongings scattered about, not locked away—a well-used Qajar-era samovar, handwritten letters with his distinct script, and furnishings that have witnessed both daily life and momentous decisions. The real highlight, though, is feeling his presence in the simplicity of his private study.
Visitor Information
Don't expect a crowded, noisy tour; come for a peaceful afternoon of reflection. The locals are proud of this gem, so feel free to ask them questions—they often have the best stories you won't find on any plaque.
Architecture & Building
The building itself is a beautiful example of late Qajar residential architecture, with a central courtyard shaded by old trees, elegant arched niches, and intricate stained-glass windows that cast colorful patterns on the traditional Persian rugs.
