    It is a very beautiful house that is nationally registered. It has two courtyards, the building is built between the courtyards, the rooms of the southern courtyard have been used as administrative offices of the hospital, and the rooms of the northern courtyard have been turned into the study hall and library of the hospital. The southern door, which is the entrance to the complex, is closed and locked to enter the house. From the east door of the old hospital building, which is on Saadi Street, enter the hospital area and continue westward until you reach the laundry room. From the south area of ​​this part, enter the north courtyard through a small door. It is better than the students of the house and its entrance be asked, otherwise you can find the problem, it is open during office hours.

    Sadegh Hedayat was one of the famous contemporary writers who was born in Tehran in 1281 Shamsi and spent most of his life in this house. His father, Atizad al-Mulk, was one of the nobles of the Qajar period, and probably, the house in question was built by his order. Hedayat House is located on Saadi St., Shahid Taqvi St., next to Amir Alam Hospital in Tehran and can be identified by the name of Sadeghieh Kindergarten. The decorations and the size of the building show the wealth of those who lived there, and the form and structure are according to the style of the late Qajar period. In the southern part of the building and around the southern courtyard, colored glazed tiles with beautiful and original patterns with dimensions of 20 x 20 cm and a height of 120 cm have given a special beauty to the house. In some parts of these tilings, the images of soldiers with special clothing of the Qajar era can be seen. Also, in the front of the building, tiling and wooden tools have doubled the beauty of the building. Hedayat House is located in the central part of the building, the main hall measuring 6 x 4 meters, with a two-meter deep porch in front of it, creates a beautiful view of this main hall towards the wide northern yard. The northern courtyard of the building also has a pleasant and beautiful environment, and its landscaping and gardens, following the Iranian landscaping pattern, have symmetry and a central water feature, and most likely, the water from the aqueduct entered it from the north of the courtyard. The source of water supply was this building, which is now blocked. The dimensions of the yard are 37 x 25 meters, and its additions include the open amphitheater at the northeast end and the motor house in this section. Surrounding the northern courtyard are the perimeter walls of the house, which have beautiful frames to avoid monotony. The main structure of the building is based on thick walls, brick bearing of one fabric and bricks are used in its core. The covering of different underground parts is in the form of a curved arch and the covering of the first floor is made flat and with wooden beams, which has been given beauty by a decorative molding. But the final covering of the building is a gable. Sadegh Hedayat's father's house is a beautiful house with Qajar architecture that was built before the revolution. It will become a museum to display Sadegh Hedayat's relics. This house was confiscated with the victory of the Islamic Revolution and was given to Tehran University of Medical Sciences. Then, it was used as a kindergarten and for some time the staff of Amir Alam Hospital and other parts of the University of Medical Sciences benefited from its services. Sadegh Hedayat's house was finally evacuated at the request of Iranian literature lovers, and in 1378, it was registered in the list of national works of Iran by the Cultural Heritage Organization with number 2491.

  • 5/5 ali c. 2 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) In 2002, Jahangir Hedayat (nephew of Sadegh Hedayat) and another group protested against the use of this house by the University of Medical Sciences, and the use of the house was changed from kindergarten to library. The protests continue for the final change of house to museum. In 1392, the yard and grounds of Sadegh Hedayat's house had been turned into a hospital waste warehouse, which was finally cleaned in May 2014. (Original) سال ۱۳۸۱ جهانگیر هدایت (برادرزاده صادق هدایت) و جمعی دیگر به نوع کاربری این خانه توسط دانشگاه علوم پزشکی اعتراض کردند و کاربری خانه از مهدکودک به کتابخانه تغییر پیدا کرد. این اعتراض‌ها برای تغییر نهایی خانه به موزه ادامه دارد. در سال ۱۳۹۲ حیاط و محوطه خانه صادق هدایت تبدیل به انبار ضایعات بیمارستان شده بود که درنهایت در اردیبهشت ماه سال ۱۳۹۳ عمارت پاکسازی شد.
