The Imamzadeh Chaharmanar (Persian: امامزاده علی بن مجاهد) also known locally as Imamzadeh Ali ibn Mujaheed is a historic mausoleum located in Tabriz, Iran.[1] It was built during the Seljuk period and is number 651 on Iran's list of national monuments.[2][3][1]
The mausoleum contains the tomb of Ali ibn Mujaheed, a descendant of the fourth Ahlulbayt Imam, Ali ibn Husayn Zayn al-Abidin, as well as two of the rulers of the Rawadid dynasty. The mausoleum is located next to the historic Gharabaghi Mosque, but unlike the mosque, it has been closed since 1965.[4]
