History of Mahmoudi House of Yazd

Mahmoudi House is an old mansion built in mid Qajar era and it is located in the historical texture of Yazd.
Mahmoudi House belonged to a tribe of merchants, known as " Bahraini Arabs ". This house is a part of a large collection of connected houses, called " Arab Complex ". The expansion and prosperity of the Arab tribes led to the development of this massive residential complex, which later the family extension and distribution led to the division of the aforementioned complex.

Architecture of Arab Complex

Originally, Arab Complex consists of a large house and a small house. The interior decoration of the large house includes Muqarnas facades of five-door rooms ( panj dari ), the corridors and doors, as well as the plaster molding of the shelves and their embedding. The interior decoration of the small house consists of a mirror room, the paintings on the walls, the moaraq doors, and plaster moldings of yard walls.
The paintings in one of the rooms date back to 1902. The small house of this collection was built by Master Ali Akbar, son of the late Master Baqer, in 1919. The architecture of the house is influenced by the warm and dry climate conditions of the region. The materials used are also mostly indigenous and traditional, including clay, mud, brick, stone, straw, plaster, wood and juncus.
Currently, some parts of the entire collection are owned by its original owners. While, this beautiful and valuable house, known as Mahmoudi House , is owned by the Cultural and Historical Heritage Organization .

Mahmoudi House of Yazd is located in Imam Khomeini Street.
