The Cultural Heritage and Tourism Base of Hegmataneh in Hamedan is a fascinating site with historical significance dating back to the time of the Medes. Visitors can explore an old church, a museum showcasing Lorestan Bronces, ceramics, glass, and coins, as well as ancient remains of the city. While some reviewers found the excavations lacking detailed explanations and maps, others were mesmerized by the museum's collection. The site offers insight into Median civilization before Persian influence and serves as a key point in Iranian history and culture. With good parking facilities available, visitors can immerse themselves in this ancient place rich with history.Review score

Great place to visit.
Will take between 1 and 2 hours.
The museum is mesmerising.
We loved the churches and did not expect to find any here.
Without detailed explanations, the excavations remain pretty poor. Unfortunately there are no maps or plans of the so far known historic city.
Highlight is the museum, that shows a very fine collection of Lorestan Bronces, ceramics, glass and coins. The Armainian churches we skipped.
