Director
General of Lorestan Cultural Heritage and Tourism
Department has called for setting up more museums in the
province.
Sirous Ebrahimi said that Lorestan should have an
exclusive museum to house and display its 7,000 historical
objects which have not yet been showcased, said a report
in Parseh Weekly, a mouthpiece of Iran’s Cultural
Heritage and Tourism Organization.
Meanwhile, an expert at the provincial Cultural Heritage
and Tourism Department said that given the diversity of
artifacts, Lorestan has the capacity for ten museums
instead of the existing one.
Amir Reza Farahbod said that unfortunately, Falak ol-Aflak
Museum is currently the sole site for displaying the
artifacts.
“It cannot meet the needs of a province which is home to
more than 6,000 valuable artifacts,“ he complained.
Once necessary funds are available, two other museums will
be established within three years, he noted.
Museums expose the thoughts and ideas of men from
different eras of history, he observed.
Archeological and anthropological museums will be set up
in Kouhdasht, Aligoudarz, Nourabad and Boroujerd in the
coming years, he concluded.
