Tehran railway station

Tehran railway station (Persian: ايستگاه راه آهن تهران, Istgah-e Rah Ahan-e Tehran) is located in Rahahan Square, at the foot of Valiasr Street in the southern part of Tehran, the capital of Iran. The railway station was originaly designed in 1928-29 by a Polish architect Władysław Horodecki who, however, suddenly died before the construction could begin. In 1930 it was then put into the hands of the experienced Danish railway architect Knud Tangaard Seest to finish the projekt. K.T. Seest changed the original plans dramatically and gave the railway station a new, highly modern, strict design. Thanks to K.T. Seest the Teheran Railway Station is one of the finest examples of early modernistic architecture in the Middleeast.
