Chartaghi Niaser (Fireplace of Niaser)

In the ancient history of Iran, science and religion were considered two elements that have influenced many ancient structures; As far as today’s understanding of these buildings depends on the scientific and religious investigation of their construction period. Structures that were built with the help of various sciences for better use and more efficiency in the service of religions.

Among the buildings whose religious use has been proven and new research reveals many of the secrets hidden in them one by one, are the quadrangles. Of course, those who came from other countries for archeology and other architectural research activities in Iran named these buildings the term “four arches”. Originally, due to the lack of recognition of the religious spaces of Iranians based on their appearance, they called them four arches; But basically these spaces are mostly fire temples. One of the remaining arches from the ancient times is the Niaser arch, which is considered one of the sights of Kashan.
