Muzah-i Muqaddam
Tehran, Iran

The Muqaddam House and Museum (Moghadam Museum) is a historic house in Tehran that once belonged to Muhsin Muqaddam. It dates to the end of the Qajar period. The house features a large courtyard garden and is typical of Qajar homes in that its plan incorporates a public (biruni) and private (andaruni) section. After becoming a public space, the house was restored and converted into a museum for the display of historic objects.
