Very shocking and also special
It was a terrifying museum and you can find a good history of Intelligence & Security organisation of Iran.
Ofcourse nowadays it's getting used for politic propaganda but still it's a good answer to the people who support any kind of totalitarian regimes. These lands has always been tortured. But the point is, also the guardians and the staff in these kind of prisons are victims. The victims of the totalitarian system. I'm more upset for the people who can torture the others. they are lost in describing the good and bad in thr terms of humanity. Prisoners have something to protect, their humanity. But the guardians has nothing. Learning from the history must take place.
want to know how Iranian suffered and how imperialist USA oppressed them? visit this place
- Important: This place is not appropriate for under 15, but the entrance gate let all range of age to visit.
+ its nice to see this prison to know about the history of the people, couldn't tolerate dictatorship. it's terrifying when the tour leader (Former prisoner ) describe the torturing methods.
- Tour takes approx. 1:30h

This museum is the building of police force savak at mohamadreza king of Iran era.it is somehow frightening place where you can see many torture equipment which was used those days
This is the Pahlavi's (past government) secret service headquarter (Savak) and prison built by Germans, it was interesting to see it for the first time, they have kept everything the same and will give you a tour like how it was before you'll hear sounds in every room there's a tv that shows you the animated actions happening in that room and mannequins of officials, although for foreigners I do no suggest you go there, there are too much violence being showed over there. It won't be a good memory to have from Iran.
Former secret prison, some memorabilia and scenes with dummies, good with a guide, probably still valuable on your own. Might shock the more sensitive. I found it well done and learned quite a lot, great insights.
