Monar Jonban(Shaking Minarets)

The whole building is in fact the tomb of Sheikh Abdullah Karladani, whose epitaph gives 1316 A.D as the construction date. The minarets were however annexed to the building in the early 18th century (late Safavid dynasty). The monument’s fame is due to the obvious vibrations of the whole structure when shaking one of the minarets. In fact, by shaking one minaret, the other one starts to shake and the whole building consequently shakes as well. The building has 10.3 meters height and 9 meters width and each minaret is 18 meters.
