It is part of a larger complex of buildings constructed for the pearl merchant Abdullah bin Isa Siyadi, which further includes a mosque and a majlis.
[1] It is also a part of the Bahrain pearling trail, the second UNESCO World Heritage Site in the country.
The Siyadi family arrived to Bahrain in the early 19th century and settled close to the rulers’ houses in the Sh.
The family's wealth originated from their involvement in the pearl trade, which blossomed in Muharraq in the 19th century.
The three buildings illustrate elaborate decorations of the late pearling era of Bahrain, in particular Siyadi Majlis has an inside room worth visiting.
