Susa Museum

This gem of a small museum displays ancient stone and pottery from archaeological sites in the region. Highlights include a giant double-headed bull capital from Susa's apadana (open columned hall), a lion-hugging Hercules from Masjid-i Soleiman (home of Iran's first commercial oil well) and some spooky clay death masks from Haft Tappeh Archaeological Site & Museum. The replica mosaics (the originals are in the Louvre) are colorful and poignant. The manager speaks English.
