Abbasi House

خانه عباسیان

An 18th-century compound of large houses, with stepped sunken courtyards, a mirror hall and colored glass windows that unfold in layers.

Abbasi House is a group of connected residences, largely built at the end of the 18th century. According to legend, its owner was a glass merchant. The house descends in levels following the terrain and has several courtyards. The mirror decoration of the main hall, the colored glass windows and the star and floral stucco reliefs are exquisite, and mirror mosaics on some room walls glitter in the sunlight. It belongs to the old town's Mansion Quarter, along with Tabatabaei House and Boroujerdi House. Visitors tend to be fewer, so the experience is quieter. Admission is moderate.
