It was built in the early 1970s and it is located in Mehrshahr near Karaj.The majority of the complex is currently occupied by a local Baseej chapter who are neglecting its upkeep. Small parts are open to the public as a result of pressure from the Cultural Heritage Organization.The building was recognized as a cultural value only in 2002, and registered by the Cultural Heritage Organization. It is currently in need of massive repairs.
