Damage to a Historical House and Two Museums in Tehran Airstrike
WANA (Mar 26) – According to the latest update to the list of historical sites damaged in U.S. and Israeli airstrikes on the Iranian capital, field monitoring and observation by the Tehran Historical Houses Follow-up Committee has confirmed damage to the historical “Davallu” House, the Glassware and Ceramic Museum (Abgineh Museum), and the Aerospace Museum.
Sajjad Asgari, Secretary of the Tehran Historical Houses Follow-up Committee stated: “Based on the latest monitoring and field observations conducted, more than 60 sites from the Pahlavi and Qajar historical periods have been damaged in the airstrikes on Tehran so far.
The damage to some of these sites is serious, while precise information regarding others is not yet available due to limitations in field inspections; however, given their proximity to blast sites, damage is suspected.”
According to the Secretary of the Historical Houses Committee, the latest field inspections confirmed damage to the “Davallu” House on Mojahedin-e Eslam Street, dating back to the First Pahlavi era and registered on Iran’s National Heritage List.
Serious damage has been sustained by the walls, doors, windows, and possibly the structure itself. This house served as the filming location for series such as The English Briefcase and Shahrzad.
He also confirmed that the Glassware and Ceramic Museum on Si-tir Street in Tehran sustained damage during the airstrike a few days ago.
Asgari further stated: “The Aerospace Museum also suffered serious damage to its walls, doors, and windows, and likely the structure, during these attacks.”
The committee’s new list mentions damage to the Iran Electrical Industry Museum (Pahlavi), Shohada Square (Qajar-Pahlavi), Baharestan Square (Qajar-Pahlavi), the Hozeh Honari Hall (Pahlavi), the National Bank (Bank Melli) Bazar branch (Pahlavi), and potential damage to the 06 Garrison (Qajar), Hakim-bashi Mosque and School (Qajar), Farahabad Chogan (Polo) and Equestrian Complex (Qajar-Contemporary), the Valiasr Street Cultural Axis (Qajar-Pahlavi), and Sa’dabad Palace (Pahlavi).
