The Irish Dominicans have a priory and church in Tehran but there is no one at present living in the priory. The campus is in the city centre.
The Irish Dominicans first went to Iran in 1962 and had a thriving community in the capital for many years.
Dublin man William Barden was archbishop of Isfahan from 1974 until 1982.
This from yesterday’s Guardian.
