Alamut was a mountain fortress located in the South Caspian province of Daylam near the Rudbar region in Iran, approximately 100 km (60 mi) from present-day Tehran, Iran. The name means "Eagle's Nest.

During the medieval period, the castle functioned as the major stronghold of the Nizari Ismaili state.
