Among these structures, Alaviyan mosque-turned-dome stands straight through ages in Hamedan. The then mosque was originally made during the Seljuk times and later in the time of Alavi Dynasty changed into a mausoleum and burial place for the royal family.
The building has been renovated several times so far. It is registered as one of the national heritage sites in Iran.
