Abstract

 Toghrol Tower is a mausoleum located in Rey, southern Tehran. Although the exact date and attribution of this monument is subject to dispute, there is no doubt that it was built under the Seljuk rule. Its plan is circular inside and indented on the exterior façade. There are two entrances on the southwest and northeast. It currently boasts no roof. To reconstruct the original form of the Tower, this paper draws on historic Iranian and foreign travel accounts, manuscripts, sketches and photographs. It is demonstrated that before a restoration in early 1880 AD, there were brick corbels both on the façade of the monument. Corbels were possibly installed on the crowning stalactite frieze below and, probably above, an inscription band in Kufic script. The frame around the southwest entrance was also topped by may be up to three rows of stalactite bands.
