Iranian Jews and Iranian Christians believe it houses the remains of the biblical Queen Esther and her cousin[1] Mordechai, and it is the most important pilgrimage site for Jews and Christians in Iran.[2][3] There is no mention of it in either the Babylonian or Jerusalem Talmud, and the Iranian Jewish tradition has not been supported by Jews beyond Iran.[4]
