The Rostam Castle Icehouse is a Safavid-era yakhchal—a traditional Persian ice storage structure—located in Lutak Rural District, Iran. Constructed from adobe and mud in the characteristic style of Safavid architecture, this cultural property represents a vernacular building type designed to preserve ice and snow through the hot seasons using ingenious natural insulation techniques. Now recognized as an Iranian National Heritage site, the icehouse stands as a testament to pre-modern engineering practices in the region.
