Chahar Padshahan (Persian: مسجد چهار پادشاهان, "Four Kings") is the name of a historic mausoleum in Lahijan, Iran, where four rulers of the Karkiya dynasty are buried.[1][2] It is number 322 on the list of national monuments of Iran.[1][2] Despite being intended as a mausoleum, the Chahar Padshahan is also used as a mosque.[1][2]
