More than 15,000 foreign tourists visited Kerman province during March 21-Sept. 22 this year, said the managing director of the provincial Cultural Heritage, Handicrafts and Tourism Department. He said Zoroastrian Museum is among the top tourist destinations of the province attracting numerous visitors each year. The official said museums manifest the character and nobility of a nation, adding Zoroastrian Museum houses relics pertaining to the culture, customs and traditions of the Zoroastrians living in Kerman. Noting that associations serve as a link between governments and people, he added that the preservation of Zoroastrian tourism sites is among the most important responsibilities of the provincial Zoroastrian Society. "Fresh initiatives should be taken to take in more tourists. For example, handicraft shops can be established near museums," he added. The official noted that economic activities to generate revenues should be considered to renovate some sections of Zoroastrian Museum. Underlining the positive attitude of the government in supporting and developing the tourism sector, he called on the Zoroastrian Society to use the opportunity and attract more Iranian and foreign tourists. He said over 7,000 historical heritage sites have been identified in Kerman Province in cooperation with cultural heritage fans and people, of which 650 have been registered on the National Heritage List. He noted that due to economic constraints, adequate fund is not available for renovating cultural heritage sites, adding that efforts are underway to hand over such sites to the private sector. As the only anthropology museum of the Zoroastrians in the world, Zoroastrian Museum, located in Kerman's Fire Temple, showcases the ancient history of the Zoroastrians. The museum was officially inaugurated during 'Jashn-e Tirgan' in 2005 by Iran's Cultural Heritage, Handicrafts and Tourism Organization. The museum building, undertaken on the initiative of Behdinan Farzaneh, Hormuzdiyar Ashidari and Mahindokht Siyavashiyan, was designed in the 1990s and completed in 2001. Among the oldest items of the museum is a book hand-written in Gothic (an archaic Germanic language) script, dating back to over 200 years and a brazier on which the date 1207 in the solar calendar (1828 in the Gregorian calendar) is engraved.

موزه زرتشتیان واقع در شهر کرمان و اولین و تنها موزه مردم‌شناسی زرتشتیان جهان است. ساخت این موزه در دههٔ ۱۳۷۰۰ به کوشش بهدینان فرزانه، هرمزدیار اشیدری و مهیندخت سیاوشیان شروع شد و در سال ۱۳۸۰ پایان یافت. کهن‌ترین اشیاء این موزه یک جلد کتاب دستنویس گاتاها با پیشینهٔ بیشتر از دویست سال و یک آتشدان دستی با تاریخ حک شده ۱۲۰۷ است. همچنین فرتورهای انجمن  ناصری زرتشتیان کرمان و رفسنجان و فرتورهای سرشناسانی چون ارباب کیخسرو شاهرخ، میرزا برزو آمیغی، کشور خانم و پوراندخت در بخش فرتور و اسناد این موزه نگهداری می‌شود. همچنین بخشی از این موزه به انواع آتشدان، روغن سوز، پیه سوز و چراغ لاله را اختصاص داده شده‌است. لباس‌های زنانه‌ای با دیرینگی ۵۰ تا ۱۵۰ سال و پیشینهای که در اسناد هخامنشی تا ساسانی دیده می‌شود، گویای پوشش زنان زرتشتی است. مخنا، لچک، چارقد، کت، پیراهن و شلوار گلدوزی شده از انواع لباس‌های زنانه‌ای است که در این موزه نگهداری می‌شود

هسته و فکر آغازین این موزه در سال 1362 همراه با تاسیس کتابخانه انجمن بنیاد گرفت. در این سال دکتر پرویز وخشوری ریاست گردش دوازدهم انجمن به همراه آقایان مهران غیبی سرپرست وقت کتابخانه، اشیا میراث فرهنگی زرتشتیان کرمان را گردآوری و تا امروز اشیا دیگری به آن افزوده شده است. سرانجام در جشن تیرگان سال 3743 (1384/4/10) به طور رسمی توسط رییس سازمان میراث فرهنگی وقت افتتاح شد. ساختمان موزه در دهه 1370 به همت و سرمایه بهدینان فرزانه هرمز یار اشیدری و خانم مهیندخت سیاوشان پی‌ریزی و در سال 1380 پایان یافت. شرح اشیا قدیمی‌ترین شی این موزه یک جلد کتاب دست‌نویس گات‌ها با قدمت بیش‌تر از دویست سال و یک عدد آتشدان دستی با تاریخ حک شده 1207 است. از بخش‌های ارزشمند این موزه، بخش عکس و اسناد است که ارباب کیخسروشاهرخ، عکس‌های انجمن ناصری زرتشتیان کرمان و رفسنجان و اشخاصی چون ارباب کیخسروشاهرخ، میرزا برزو آمیغی و کشورخانم از ارزش ویژه‌ای برخوردارند. افزون بر این انواع آتشدان، روغن سوز، پیه سوز و چراغ لاله بخشی از این موزه را به خود اختصاص داده است. لباس‌های زنانه با قدمت 50 تا 150 و با پیشینه‌ای که اسناد هخامنشی تا ساسانی دیده می‌شود. گویای پوشش مناسب زنان زرتشتی است. مخنا (مقنعه)، لچک، چارقد، کت، پیراهن و شلوار گلدوزی شده زیبایی خاصی دارند. در پایان یادآور می‌شود که زرتشتیان کرمان در راه‌اندازی واحدهای فرهنگی و درمانی نیز پیشگام بوده‌اند. کرمان یکی از قدیمی‌ترین مراکز زندگی زرتشتیان است و هنوز هم زرتشتیان در کرمان زندگی می‌کنند. زرتشتیان پنج بار نماز می‌خوانند و قبله نماز ایشان نور، از جمله آتش است. از این‌رو برای نگه‌داری آتش و مراسم نیایش همگانی (جشن) جایگاه‌هایی به نام آتشکده...

Unfortunately, I found this museum a very lackluster location. I think it would qualify mostly as a congregation area for Kerman's Zoroastrian population, rather than a genuine museum. Most of the items are common household belongings of 20th century persons and lack religious...
