Tehran’s Historic Glassware and Ceramic Museum Resumes Operations

The Glassware and Ceramic Museum of Iran, a prominent cultural institution in Tehran, has officially announced its reopening to the public.

According to the Jadeh Makhsous news agency, the museum resumed its activities starting Wednesday, September 23rd.

The museum has also released its updated visiting hours for the second half of the year. From Sunday to Wednesday, the museum will be open from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. On Thursdays and Fridays, the hours are extended from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM.

Visitors should note that the final ticket purchase must be made 45 minutes prior to the closing time. The Glassware and Ceramic Museum of Iran is located on Si-e Tir Street.

According to Jadeh Makhsous, this reopening is part of a broader initiative affecting museums, palaces, and historical sites. These venues had been temporarily closed as a protective measure for historical artifacts and structures. The decision to reopen was made following a directive from the General Directorate of Museums of the Ministry of Cultural Heritage, Tourism, and Handicrafts, in response to appeals from tour operators and tourists concerning the prolonged closures.
