Heydar Mosque

Heydar Mosque is a modern house of worship built with white stone, characterized by its spacious scale and clear geometric forms. The structure features four slender minarets and a dominant central dome that shapes the skyline of the district.

The building was created in the early 2010s as a modern sanctuary for the growing population in Binəqədi district. After completion, it quickly became a religious and architectural center for the surrounding community.

The mosque serves as a gathering place for believers from different Islamic traditions and creates community space in the district. Its striking white walls have become a recognizable landmark that reflects the religious diversity of the city.

The mosque is located in eastern Baku and is accessible by public transportation from the city center. Visitors should wear appropriate clothing and be aware of prayer times, as these can affect accessibility.

Quranic verses engraved on the domes make the building a visual expression of religious texts. These inscriptions are visible from various angles and create a special spiritual connection between architecture and faith.
