Ardabil Anthropology Museum (Persian: موزه مردم‌شناسی اردبیل) is a museum in Ardabil, Iran. The building of the museum was originally a historical bath with the name of Zahir-al-Islam, belonging to the pre-Safavid period, about second half of the seventh century AH. Cultural Heritage Organization of Iran changed it to the Museum of Anthropology in 1999.[1] The museum is near to the Sheikh Safi mausoleum.
