Imamzadeh Husayn

Iran

The Tomb of Sayyid ʿAlāʾed-Dīn Ḥusayn, also known as the Imamzadeh Husayn (Shiraz), is a Twelver Shi'ite mausoleum and mosque complex that contains a shrine, located in south-east Shiraz, in the province of Fars, Iran. Constructed in the 10th century of the Islamic calendar, the mausoleum houses the remains of Sayyid Ala'ed-Din Husayn, son of Imam Musa al-Kazim, and brother of Sayyid Ahmad (whose shrine is also in Shiraz). The mausoleum complex was added to the Iran National Heritage List on 20 December 1937, administered by the Cultural Heritage, Handicrafts and Tourism Organization of Iran. The complex is one of the holiest sites in Twelver Shia Islam.
