We visited Tehran, the capital of Iran, and visited the Iranian Antiquities Museum in the National Museum of Iran.

National Museum of Iran (Persian: موزهٔ ملی ایران　Mūze-ye Melli-ye Irān).

The Museum of Antiquities was designed by French designer André Godard and was built and opened to visitors in 1937. The museum is located in the center of Tehran, with a total area of 5,500 square meters.

The building of the Museum of Antiquities uses the architectural style of the Takkisla Palace of the Sasanian Empire, with a total area of about 11,000 square meters on three floors.

The museum’s collections span a wide time span, starting hundreds of thousands of years ago, through Neo-Paleolithic and Bronze Age collections, to the Achaemenid Empire’s collections from Persepolis and Pasargadae, up to AD Collections from the 7th-century Sasanian Empire.

The Islamic Archaeological Museum next door was built in 1950, and its collections are from after the 7th century AD.
