The specialists will share the results of restoration works executed on the ancient monument.

We remind that Dehistan in the Middle Ages was called not only the administrative center with an area of about two hundred hectares, but also the entire densely populated province with a whole network of fortress cities. Now it is the State Historical and Cultural Reserve “Ancient Dehistan” in the Etrek etrap of Balkan velayat.

Archeologists, who have been successfully working on preservation of Dehistan monuments for several years, have completed a project on restoration of the arch of the mosque portal. To this date, as a result of archeological research, the cultural layers of the medieval city have been most fully explored, the remains of which almost completely hide its earlier history from the eyes of historians.
