Tehran Railway Station ({{langx|fa|ايستگاه راه آهن تهران|Istgah-e Rah Ahan-e Tehran}}) is located in Rah Ahan Square, at the foot of Valiasr Street in the southern part of Tehran, the capital of Iran. The railway station was originally designed in 1928-29 by Polish architect Władysław Horodecki, who died before the construction could begin. In 1930, the experienced Danish railway architect Knud Tanggaard Seest was then tasked to finish the project.{{cite web|language=da|url= https://www.kulturarv.dk/kid/VisKunstner.do?kunstnerId=10486|title=K.T. Seest|publisher = Kunstindeks Danmark & Weilbach Kunstnerleksikon|first= Jørgen|last=Hegner Christiansen|access-date=2024-06-27}} Around the time it opened in 1930, the previous tram system in Tehran was shut down. Seest changed the original plans dramatically and gave the railway station a new, highly modern, strict design. The Tehran Railway Station serves as an example of early modernistic architecture in the Middle East.{{cn|date=October 2024}}
