Marble Palace, Royal palace in Tehran, Iran

Marble Palace is a royal residence in Tehran built with stone and marble featuring botanical and animal decorative patterns throughout. The building contains multiple rooms arranged across its structure, each displaying different collections and artworks.

Construction of this residence began in the early 20th century under Reza Shah Pahlavi as a royal home. It was later converted into a museum to make its collections accessible to the public.

The palace displays Iranian art and traditional craftsmanship from different periods across its rooms. Visitors can observe how artistic traditions were expressed through furniture, decorative elements, and paintings throughout history.

The palace is located in a central area of the city and can be reached via major streets. It is advisable to check current visiting conditions beforehand as these may vary seasonally.

This residence was the setting for important royal ceremonies and personal moments in the ruling family's life. This connection to the dynasty's history adds a personal dimension beyond its role as an art collection.
