Jaame mosque
of Fahraj is probably the oldest Persian mosque built in Iran after Muslims
conquered this country. The footprints of Sassanid architecture style are
recognizable in the arcs, stucco works and the doors of this very first Persian
mosque. The single earthen minaret of Fahraj mosque is added to the monument
afterward.
