Haydar-Khana Mosque, Ottoman mosque in Rusafa district, Baghdad, Iraq
The Haydar-Khana Mosque features three marble entrance doors, a large blue dome, and a minaret decorated with Kashi tiles on Al-Rashid Street.
Built during the Abbasid Caliphate by Al-Nasir, the mosque underwent major expansions between 1819 and 1827 under the direction of Mamluk ruler Dawud Pasha.
This religious building served as a gathering point for demonstrations against British colonialism in 1920, marking the beginning of the Iraqi Revolt.
The mosque remains open for daily prayers and functions as both a place of worship and an educational center through its integrated madrasa.
The structure contains historical inscriptions discovered during the 1972 renovations that document earlier restoration efforts throughout different periods.
