The Kerman Fire Temple (Persian: آتشکده کرمان) is a Zoroastrian fire temple in Kerman, Iran. The structure is also the house to the only anthropology museum of Zoroastrians in the world.[1] [2] [3]
The temple was built in 1924 during the reign of Reza Shah Pahlavi, and the fire contained in it was transferred from India to this place and is said to originate from Adur Farnbag, one of the three holiest fires in Sasanian times.[4]
The idea to make the place a museum was first expressed in 1983. In 2005 the museum was finally inaugurated. The museum contains a handwritten version of Gathas estimated to be at least 200 years old.
It was listed among the Iranian national heritage sites with the number 4190 on October 2, 2001.[5]
