JAM'E MOSQUE

From the architectural point of view and on account of its ancient prayer hall and stone columns with evident signs of deterioration and wear the Jam'e Mosque of Dezful counts as one of the early Islamic monuments, which has been further expanded and repaired in the 13th and 18th centuries AD. The date 1744 AD inscribed on the portal of the Mosque, is indicative of such repairs.
 

The eastern ivan of the mosque has been constructed in 1698 AD under the Safavids, while its portal and minarets belong to the 18th century AD. The whole structure is an imitation of the techniques used in Ivan-e Karkheh.
