Alliance School, Tehran
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alliance school Tehran (Etehad school)[1] was the first Alliance Israélite Universelle school built in Iran. Located in the capital Tehran and founded in 1898,[2] it was the first western style school in Iran, and is still open today.[3][4]
Alliance organization had a great role in improving the situation of Iranian Jews, thus some Jews regarded its representatives as Messiah (Christ) or the Jews' promised saviour.[5]
