Historic Houses of Yazd and Hidden Corridors

Historic Houses of Yazd and Hidden Corridors

One of the lesser-known features of historic Houses can be seen in the valuable world context of Yazd, having underground corridors that lead to the connection of houses to each other, but what is the story of these underground corridors that remain in some historic Houses?
One of the legacies of the past less talked about is the corridors of the old historic houses of Yazd, the traces of which are visible in the lower part of the historical context of Yazd, and some Houses still have the corridors.
Although water and gas lines and sometimes street asphalt have blocked many of these paths and corridors, some historic Houses still have mysterious corridors that sometimes extend to a neighbor’s house.
Where will these old paths, which sometimes remain intact under historic houses, reach? And why and for what reason were they created, and when were they build?
“In the past, during the First World War, when Yazd was suffering from a severe famine, people took refuge in these areas for fear of foreign enemy groups,” Seyed Mostafa Fatemi, director-general of Yazd’s cultural heritage, told ISNA about the corridors.
He states: “At this time, in the face of fear of the enemy, they hid their children and wives in these underground parts and covered the corridors with a barbed wall with some food so that the enemy would not notice these families, and perhaps many of these people if Injury Husbands also remained behind the wall until they died.
Fatemi says about these underground corridors: These corridors, which still exist in some historic houses of the historical context of Yazd, were generally built between the houses of one people such as Arabs and neighbors and destinations such as mosques and public baths.
Of course, in the written and oral history of Yazd, underground passages and underground paths have also been mentioned, some of which are related to aqueduct paths and some underground corridors.
