Constitution House of Isfahan (Persian: خانهٔ مشروطه اصفهان), also known as Khaneh Mashroutiyat or Khaneh Haj Aqha Nourrollah Najafi Esfahani, is an edifice located next to the Naqsh-e Jahan Square, on Neshat Ave in Isfahan, Iran.[1]

History

Safa Khaneh was built by Haj Aqa Nourollah and his older brother.

Muslims and Christians came here to talk about their religions with each other making it one of the first interfaith centers in the world. Later, a magazine was published based on these dialogues in Iran, India and London. Later it became an Islamic hospital delivering care without charge. It then became a qeraat khane, (place for reading) where the staff read newspaper aloud for visitors. About 100 years ago it became an Islamic company that produced clothing.
