Aghdam Mosque, Islamic mosque in Aghdam, Azerbaijan
The rectangular limestone structure features two brick minarets at its corners, with geometric decorations and tin-roofed wooden tops for prayer calls.
Built between 1868 and 1870 by architect Karbalayi Safikhan Karabakhi, the mosque remained the only standing structure after the First Nagorno-Karabakh War.
The mosque walls display Arabic Quranic inscriptions in blue frames, including the central text stating 'There is no god but Allah, Muhammad his apostle, Ali is Allah's helper'.
Following Azerbaijan's regained control in 2020, the Heydar Aliyev Foundation initiated renovation works to restore the mosque's original architectural features.
The first Friday prayer in 28 years occurred on November 24, 2020, attended by the last imam and Azerbaijani soldiers after the territory returned to Azerbaijan.
