Baku mosque, Islamic place of worship in Astrakhan, Russia.
The Baku mosque features a rectangular structure with traditional Islamic architectural elements and stands as a testament to Muslim heritage in Astrakhan.
Construction of the mosque began in 1907 on land donated by Nijemetdinov, and the building was completed in 1909 to serve the local Muslim community.
The mosque transformed from a prayer house established in 1897 into a center that included educational facilities for both male and female students.
Located on Bakinskaya Street, the mosque underwent substantial restoration in 2002 through efforts of the Azerbaijani diaspora in Astrakhan.
During the Soviet period, the mosque experienced multiple transformations, including removal of its minaret and conversion attempts into a gymnasium.
