The Sassanid Palace of Sarvestan (Persian: کاخ ساسانی سروستان, romanized: kakh-eh Sassani-ye Sarvestan) is a Sassanid-era building in the Iranian city of Sarvestan, some 90 km southeast from the city of Shiraz. The palace was built in the 5th century AD, and was either a gubernatorial residence or a Zoroastrian fire temple.
The Sarvestan Palace is one of the most important archaeological sites of the field of Sasanian archaeology, and it is designated as one of the eight UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the Sassanid Archaeological Landscape of Fars Region.
