Kelar

Kelar or Kalâr is a town in Iraqi Kurdistan located on Sirwan (Diyala) river, and to the east of Kifri and to the west of Qasri Shirin and Sarpol Zahab in Kermanshah province in western Iran. Part of the twin towns of Smud-Kelar, Smud was renamed Rizgari after the 1991 Kurdish uprising against the Ba'ath party. The neighborhood of Smud was a relocation camp for Kurdish people under Saddam's regime.

The University of Kelar, a satellite campus of University of Sulaymaniyah, majors in agriculture.

Sherwana Castle, on the Sirwan river was built in the 1800s. It now serves as a museum of the artifacts uncovered from the mound it stands on.
