Christianity in Iran
Christianity has a long history in Iran, dating back to the early years of the faith. It has been practiced in Iran longer than the state religion, Islam.

Christians of Iran have played a significant part in the history of Christian mission. Today, there are at least 600 churches for 300,000 - 370,000 Christians in Iran.
