Palace of Ardashir Bābakān (Persian: کاخ اردشير بابکان, romanized: Kākh-e Ardeshīr-e Bābakān), also known as the Ātashkadeh (Persian: آتشکده, lit. 'Fire Temple'), is a castle located on the slopes of the mountain on which Qal'eh Dokhtar is situated.

Built in AD 224 by King Ardashir I of the Sasanian Empire, it is located two kilometers (1.2 miles) north of the ancient city of Gor, i.e. the old city of Artakhsher Khwarah/Khor Ardashir/Gor Adesheer (Glory of [king] Ardasher) in Pars, in ancient Persia (Iran). The ancient city where the palace is located, was renamed "Peroz" (lit. victorious) after Ardashir established the Sasanian Empire by overthrowing Ardavan, the last Parthian king. After the Arabian conquest, Peroz was called Firuz, and the name remained. The modern city of Firuzabad is hence, of important significance in Persian history and Sasanian archaeology, and is one of the eight designated UNESCO World Heritage Sites of the Sassanid Archaeological Landscape of Fars Region.
