The Archeology Museum of Zanjan is located in the Zolfaqari Mansion of Zanjan and opened in 2009. This museum houses artifacts from prehistory, ancient history and the Islamic era. Initially the mansion was used as a temporary museum to house the saltmen uncovered at Zanjan's Chehrabad Salt Mine. So far six salt mummies from the Achaemenid (550-330 BC) and Sassanid (226-651 CE) eras have been found. One of these mummies is housed at the National Museum of Iran in Tehran.
