Alavian Dome in Hamadan is located in a garden of the same name. The structure was initially a mosque built by the Alavian family during the Seljuq era (1038-1118) and later became a family crypt. This 10th century structure once had a dome, which collapsed over time.
With its unique stucco reliefs and delicate brickwork, this cube-shaped structure is an outstanding example of Persian-Islamic architecture. A narrow staircase at the back of the building leads to a large sarcophagus at the center of a vaulted chamber.
The interior of the structure has been lavishly decorated with stucco inscriptions, which are presumed to have been added during the Ilkhanid era, in the Kufic calligraphy hand.
There is a rectangular plaque with stucco honeycomb patterns and flower motifs above the entrance of the structure. The outer frame of this plaque bears stucco reliefs of Quranic inscriptions in the Kufic calligraphy hand.
Hamadan Province, Hamedan, District 4, Alavian Blvd.
همیشه بازدید از آرامگاه ها برایم جالب بوده. اینکه آدم ها خاطراتی می سازند و می روند. از دیدن این مکان راضی بودم.
خیلی خوبه که معابد حفظ میشه. از اینکهع این معبد قدیمی مثل خیلی آثار باستانی از بین نرفته خوشحالم.
یک معبد کوچک و باحال. خیلی جالب بود.
