Murtuza Mukhtarov mosque, Gothic mosque in Əmircan, Azerbaijan.
The Murtuza Mukhtarov mosque features two minarets reaching 47 meters high with 140 steps leading to the observation area.
Built between 1901 and 1908, the mosque was funded by oil industrialist Murtuza Mukhtarov after local residents faced financial difficulties during construction.
The mosque includes Arabic inscriptions reading 'Greeting to the prophets' on its sides and contains a 25-kilogram Quran with golden calligraphy.
The religious complex maintains separate prayer rooms for men and women, serving the local Sunni Muslim community throughout the year.
During the Soviet period, the building functioned as a weaving workshop and later as an exhibition hall for Azerbaijani artist Sattar Bahlulzade from 1985 to 1989.
