Avecinna Memorial Building

Avecinna tomb is located in the middle of a square of the same name. An oval square with old plane trees, geometric garden, a well fanned building and structure (the symbol of the square) that creates a nice promenade and it shines as a brilliant in the heal1 of the old city. All the world's important cities got their reputation from a memorial building and the symbol of Hamedan is Avccinna's beautiful tomb for over 50 years.

The building has been renovated three times. Its first building was built in Ghajar period, but it was not suil3blc. Therefore, the National Iranian relif Association decided to rebuild it on his millenium of his birth date.
The present building design and plan has been adapted from the oldest Islamic monument; Ghabus Ibn-e Voshmgir Tower in Gonbad Kavoos and in style of his time architecture and Eng. Hoshang Seyhoon has done it. It is a composition of Old and Islamic Persian architectures with the use of modern techniques. A tower can be seen which inspired by Gonbad Kavos Tower, also several gardens like Persian gardens, a water front that is an inspiration of cellarpools of the old houses and a facade of big granite rocks of Mount Alvand which is a symbol of old Persian imperial palaces. It was built in 1955 A.D. instead of the house of Abu Saeed Dakhook, Avecinna's best friend who was also buried beside Avecinna. Now the southern hall is used as a museum for coins, crackers, bronzes and other excavated monuments belonging to some centuries before Christ and Islamic period. Also there is a library with more than 8000 volumes of manuscripts and valuable Persian and foreign books in addition 10 Avecinna's works and other authors and writers of Hamedan, in the northern hall. In the Avecinna 's pavilion there is picture of his skull that probably was drawn during the older building destruction.
In the east of the square, there is a complimentary semi-circle garden with a nice green view in which Avecinna's statue has been erected with a book in its hand gazing the far horizons, probably humming this poem:
In the vast desert of life, my mind sought so much
Slitting the hair and not finding a thread. In my mind rose thousands of suns
 And  could not solve the mystery of an atom.
