Project Description
This complex arose on the place of burial of a dervish Abu Yaqub Yusuf ibn Ayyub, born in the city of Hamadan (western Iran). Above his grave was erected a mausoleum, from which to this day almost nothing left.
Partially destroyed the structure was rebuilt and reconstructed in the XIX century. Dervish grave symbolizes the vault of black marble, decorated with floral patterns and inscriptions.
In the western corner of the mausoleum is a chapel with a central iwan. It is the main part of the complex. Today, Yusuf Hamadani mosque - an important Muslim shrine - a place of worship of believers.
