The Deylaman Historical Bathhouse is located in the historical context of the city of Deylaman. This historical building is known as the Mirboluk Bathhouse, because the bathhouse was unearthed, repaired and operated by the order of Mirza Ali Mirboluk, and that is why it is famous. It probably belongs to the Ilkhanate period buildings, which have undergone restoration, renovation, and additions in different periods.

The Deylaman Bathhouse has a central yard surrounded by four other courtyards in the four main directions. Also, four rooms or courtyards have been built in the four corners in order to serve as the warm room, cold room, Patanvirkhaneh cleaning room, and the dressing room. Previously, there were three steps leading to the lower part of the bathhouse, from where people entered the bathhouse, and a cold-water basin was installed in front of the dressing room for washing feet, which has been destroyed by the residents of Deylaman along with the dressing room and the entrance gate. The heating system of the bathhouse is located behind the building, and the hot room and the bathhouse Khazineh are built between the heating and the cold rooms. The skylights are located above the domes of the bathhouse, and transparent marble stones have been used to allow the passage of light due to the unavailability of clear glass. The water was transferred to the reservoir by clay tanks.

In the past, this bathhouse was used for bathing and washing by the residents of Deylaman, caravans, and travelers. Due to the mountainous location and cold climate of the region, it is considered as one of the buildings that has been designed and constructed with consideration of the harsh mountainous conditions and the ability to cope with them. In other words, the greatest attention has been paid to the issue of weather, coldness, and coping with it. This building has a simple and durable structure, and the architect's greatest effort has been focused on its durability and practical factors.
