This structure, which bears close resemblance to those of "Qajar"
period, was originally built as the residence of "Molla
Lotfollah Sheikholeslam", one of the spiritual leaders of
"Qajar" era.
After
his death, it was bought by "Salar Said Sanandaji", and
later handed over to Ministry of Culture and Art, being transformed
into a museum in 1967.
It
was closed in 1980, because of war; and reopened for public visit in
March 1990.
It
consists of a basement and a ground floor. Archeological items are
exhibited in basement and ethnological materials are on show on the
ground floor.
