Brick minaret dates back to 900 years ago that is situated on the south of Khorramabad. This Brick minaret has been built on a stone base with a height of 30 meters. The radius at the lower level is about 5.4 meters. You can reach the roof of Brick minaret by walking up 99 sets of spiral stairs.

Due to the architectural style of this Brick minaret, it may date back to the Daylamites Empire. The entrance gate is placed on the western side of the minaret. In the vicinity of this minaret, there are remaining thick walls that indicate the existence of facilities such as a caravanserai, a mosque and so on.

This Brick minaret is like a tower that was used as a path-finding guide for caravans along the path to the ancient city of Shapur Khast. Shapur Khast is the old name of a city that was built in the current place of Khorramabad. In the past, many caravans have found their way through this minaret and have seen the enemy on top of it and made people aware of the danger of attack.
