The mosque was started in the Ilkhan era under the supervision of Minister Taj od-Din Alishah. After the death of the minister and the collapse of the roof, construction was interrupted. Arg-e-Tabriz was later used as an educational center during the Safavid era . Destruction followed during the Ottoman occupation . In the Qajar era during the Russo-Persian War , the building served as a warehouse and warehouse for the Iranian army . After the Islamic Revolution , a large part of the wall was leveled and blown up in 1981 to make way for a new Friday mosque .
Currently only part of the huge wall and mihrab of the southern Shabestan is standing . The remains of the wall are about 28 m high. The last restorations took place in 2013 at the instigation of the Organization for Cultural Heritage, Crafts and Tourism .
