1840's photo of Tuğrul Tower, Iran. ⁠ ⁠ The 20-metre-tall brick tower is the tomb of Seljuk ruler Tughril, who died in Rey in 1063.⁠ ⁠ It is said that one of the uses of this tower was to use it on foggy nights by lighting a fire on its high barrier to guide the travellers of the Silk Road coming from Khorasan to Rey.
