Jameh Mosque of Saveh

Jameh Mosque of Saveh, Seljuk mosque in Saveh, Iran

The Jameh Mosque of Saveh is a place of worship with a rectangular courtyard, brick columns, and a large domed roof. A single minaret rises beside it, and small chambers line the raised western porch.

The building arose in the 12th century as Saveh was being established, possibly on the remains of an older structure from the 10th century. This foundation shows how long this land had already been inhabited and used as a sacred place.

The mosque bears names and structural choices that reflect different ruling dynasties, each leaving behind their own architectural marks. Visitors can see these layers in the walls and decorations, showing centuries of religious life in this city.

Visitors can study inscriptions in old Arabic script at two altars, which contain important religious texts. The arrangement of chambers on both sides helps understand the spatial design of the prayer space.

The inside of the dome displays intricate patterns made from colored tiles, showing quiet craftsmanship. The minaret beside it carries raised brick patterns and old inscriptions that are often overlooked.
