Si-o-Se Pol was constructed between 1599 and 1602. The Safavid ruler ʿAbbās I ordered its construction, and Allahverdi Khan, one of the king’s key generals, oversaw the project. The architect commissioned by Khan to design the bridge is not named in historical sources, though tradition identifies the architect as either Hossein Banā Isfahani or Mir Jamāl al-Dīn Muhammad Jābirī.
