| Minaret (; Persian: menare, Azerbaijani: minar, Turkish: minare,), from Arabic: manra, lit. "lighthouse", also known as Goldaste (Persian: ), is a distinctive architectural structure akin to a tower and typically found adjacent to mosques. Generally a tall spire with a conical or onion-shaped crown, usually either free-standing or taller than associated support structure. The basic form of a minaret includes a base, shaft, and gallery. Styles vary regionally and by period. Minarets provide a visual focal point and are traditionally used for the Muslim call to prayer (Adhan). |
