The Kharraqan Towers, also known as the Kharrakhan or the Domes of Kharaghan, are a pair of mausolea built in 1067 and 1093 CE, in the Kharraqan region, in Hesar-e Valiyeasr, near Qazvin, Qazvin province, northern Iran. They are notable for being an early example of a geometric ornament, an early example of double domes, and one of the earlier tomb towers that appeared in the Seljuk era during the 11th century.
