The Resket Tower (Persian: برج رسکت; also spelled Resget) is a monument in Sari, Iran. The tower was constructed in the 11th-century. A stucco is written on the entrance, in Arabic and Pahlavi, which states that the mausoleum was built for the two Bavandid princes Hormozd-Yar and Qabus-Yar. The person behind the construction of the tower was most likely the father of the two princes.
