This
building
was
built
during
the
period
of
Fath
Ali
Shah
Qajar
and
by
his
order
for
summer
residence
in
a
large
garden
which
is
now
the
Faculty
of
Agriculture.
The
Sulaymaniyah
Palace
and
the
beautiful
garden
in
front
of
it,
as
well
as
the
buildings
that
were
built
for
the
servants
of
the
royal
procession,
had
created
a
small
and
very
beautiful
residence
and
command
complex,
but
now
the
buildings
of
the
royal
servants
have
been
destroyed.
The
reason
for
naming
this
building
is
mentioned
in
honor
of
the
birthday
of
the
34th
son
of
Fath
Ali
Shah
named
Suleiman
Mirza.
In
the
hall
of
this
building,
two
paintings
by
Abdullah
Khan
Naqash
Bashi
are
painted
on
the
walls,
one
is
the
image
of
Agha
Mohammad
Khan
and
the
other
is
the
image
of
Fath
Ali
Shah
and
his
entourage.
In
the
public
painting
of
Fath
Ali
Shah,
Suleiman
Mirza
is
depicted
as
a
child
next
to
the
peacock
throne.
Farhad
Mirza
considered
the
time
of
construction
of
the
building
in
the
year
1226
and
named
Haji
Mohammad
Hossein
Khan
Sadr
Azam
of
Isfahani
as
the
builder
of
the
building.
Gaspard
Drouville,
a
French
officer
who
lived
in
Iran
during
the
same
years
as
the
construction
of
this
building,
presents
a
different
narrative
in
his
travelogue.
According
to
him,
Mohammad
Ali
Mirza
Dolatshah,
the
eldest
son
of
Fath
Ali
Shah,
who
was
angry
with
the
appointment
of
Abbas
Mirza
as
crown
prince,
to
prove
his
worth,
went
to
war
with
Suleiman
Pasha,
the
governor
of
Baghdad,
and
defeated
him
and
took
a
huge
war
indemnity
from
him.
He
sent
all
the
money
to
Fath
Ali
Shah
to
gain
popularity
with
him.
With
the
money
he
earned,
Feth
Ali
Shah
built
this
palace
and
named
it
Sulaimaniyah
to
keep
the
memory
of
Suleiman
Pasha's
defeat
alive.
