Electric Shutter for Protection of Historical Monument
The Tomb of the Four Prophets is a historical monument in Qazvin where an electric shutter has recently been installed on one of its shrines, justified as a measure to protect the monument and the shrine.
Zarapur, a cultural heritage activist in Qazvin, says the reasons given for installing the shutter are not justifiable.
So, should we install shutters on all historical monuments for protection?
Imagine installing an electric shutter to protect Persepolis.
Protection has its own methods and principles, the best of which is using tempered glass as a protective barrier.
Precious paintings and historical inscriptions are also protected today with these types of glass.
