Jamalabad Caravanserai (Persian: کاروانسرای جمال آباد) (Azerbaijani: جمال آباد کروانسراسی) is a historical caravanserai in Jamalabad, near Mianeh, Iran. The building was originally constructed in Ilkhanate era, but was repaired during the reign of Abbas II.[1][2]

Although the building is attributed to the Ilkhanate, the inscription on top of its gate attributes it to Abbas II of Persia, and cites the date of construction as 1654–55.[3]

This building was listed among the national heritage sites of Iran on 29 September 2002 with the number 6152.[4][3]
