Garmanab (Persian: گرمناب) is a village in Minjavan-e Gharbi Rural District of Minjavan District, Khoda Afarin County, East Azerbaijan province, Iran.
History
In the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, the village was inhabited by Armenians, who later emigrated to Armenia or Tabriz. Just before World War II, Reza Qoli Khan, a prominent member of the ruling clan of the Mohammad Khanlu tribe, acquired ownership of the village. Shia Muslims and the followers of the Yarsan religion settled in the village. Reza Qoli Khan perished during the brief reign of the Azerbaijan People's Government, following which some members of the Mohammad Khanlu tribe migrated to Qareh Tikanlu.
By the year 2000 the village was deserted. Since 2005, some expatriates, particularly the grandchildren of Reza Qoli Khan and Hossein Khan, the landlord of Abbasabad, have constructed summer residences in the meadows of the former village.
There is a holy shrine in the skirts of a mountain outside of the village, where people of neighboring villages used to slaughter sacrificial animals.
