Located in Kashan, Iran, the Sultan Amir Ahmad Hammam is a traditional public bathhouse constructed during the Safavid era in the 16th century. Originally an example of Iranian architectural design featuring multiple domes, the structure was severely damaged by an earthquake in 1778 and subsequently renovated during the Qajar period. The bathhouse, also known as the Qasemi Bathhouse, is named after the nearby mausoleum of Imamzadeh Sultan Amir Ahmad. Water for the complex was supplied through two wells and distributed via ceramic pipes to various chambers, reflecting the sophisticated hydraulic engineering typical of Persian hammam design. Now recognized as an Iranian National Heritage site, it represents the layered architectural evolution spanning Seljuk, Safavid, and Qajar periods.
