The Sahebgharaniyeh Palace (Persian: کاخ صاحبقرانیه) is a royal palace in Tehran, Iran. Built in 1850 by the order of Naser ed-Din Shah Qajar, it is one of the only Qajar buildings in the Niavaran complex.[1]

Naser ed-Din Shah Qajar ordered the construction of the palace in 1850 in two floors, and in the 39th year of his rule he gave himself the title "Sahebgharan" and gave the name "Sahebgharaniyeh" to the place. Mozaffar ad-Din Shah Qajar signed the first constitution of Iran in this place. Fawzia of Egypt and Mohammad Reza Pahlavi were also scheduled to hold their wedding in this palace, which was cancelled due to cold weather. The palace was also used as the working office of Mohammad Reza Shah for several years before the Iranian revolution.[2]
