The Imamzadeh Husayn, also called the Emamzadeh Alaeddin Hossein, is a Twelver Shi'ite mausoleum and mosque complex in south-east Shiraz, Fars Province, Iran. Built in the 10th century of the Islamic calendar, it houses the remains of Sayyid Ala'ed-Din Husayn, son of Imam Musa al-Kazim. The Safavid-style complex, notable for its aina-kari, tile, and brick work, was added to the Iran National Heritage List on 20 December 1937.
