Mamay Mosque, Islamic mosque in Shusha, Azerbaijan.
Mamay Mosque is located at a street intersection in the Mamayi district of Shusha and follows the design principles of the Arran Architectural School. The building features a dome above the main prayer hall with a traditional stone or brick exterior.
The building was constructed in 1801 and belonged to a period when Shusha was a significant regional center with multiple places of worship. It emerged during a time of religious importance for the city's diverse communities.
The mosque serves as a gathering place for the local religious community and shapes daily life in this neighborhood. Visitors can observe how the space hosts both everyday prayer and special occasions.
The building is visible from the street corner and visitors can examine the architecture from outside. Those wishing to enter should dress respectfully and observe local customs regarding footwear and behavior.
Unlike many other mosques in the region, this building lacks minarets, which sets it apart from typical mosque designs. This architectural choice makes it a notable example of regional building variation.
