The
history
of
the
construction
of
Tos
Historical
Museum
dates
back
to
the
Pahlavi
period
and
the
year
1343.
This
museum
was
built
by
Hoshang
Sihun,
who
was
a
very
professional
architect,
in
1347
as
a
traditional
teahouse
and
a
performance
by
the
people
who
narrated
the
Shahnameh,
but
years
later,
in
1361,
the
building
of
the
Ferdowsi
Museum
in
Mashhad,
as
well
as
donated
objects
From
the
city
of
Tos,
it
became
the
current
museum.
The
area
of
the
Birch
Museum
is
600
square
meters
and
its
exterior
is
designed
like
the
architecture
of
the
Achaemenid
period.
In
general,
this
museum
consists
of
4
different
parts
and
each
of
these
parts
are
separate
from
each
other.
In
the
70s,
a
plan
for
the
renovation
and
change
of
the
interior
spaces
of
the
museum
was
considered
by
the
cultural
heritage
of
Mashhad,
based
on
which
the
concrete
cover
of
the
building
was
covered
with
red
and
yellow
bricks,
and
a
completely
traditional
and
different
view
from
the
original
design
of
the
building
was
designed.
For
the
construction
of
the
museum,
resistant
materials
have
been
used
in
its
interior
spaces,
so
that
its
walls
are
covered
with
white
bricks.
The
floor
of
the
museum
building
is
covered
with
white
stones
and
yellow
stones
are
used
to
show
the
lines
of
the
previous
plan.
This
building
was
reopened
as
a
museum
in
2004
and
is
still
active.
People
who
are
interested
in
the
Shahnameh
can
visit
a
manuscript
of
Ferdowsi's
Shahnameh,
several
stone
inscriptions,
forty
antique
lamps
and
a
copy
of
the
Shahnameh
that
is
exposed
to
visitors
inside
the
Birch
Museum.
