Located in Sari, the capital of Mazandaran Province in northern Iran, the Kolbadi House is a late-19th-century mansion that exemplifies Qajar-period residential architecture. Also known as the Manouchehr Khan Kolbadi House, this brick and wood structure represents traditional Persian design from the Qajar era (1789–1925) and now functions as an ethnography and archaeology museum dedicated to the cultural heritage of the Mazandaran region. Designated as an Iranian National Heritage site, the house preserves the domestic refinement and architectural conventions characteristic of its period.
