Tynybai Mosque, 19th-century Islamic mosque in Semey, Kazakhstan
The wooden Tynybai Mosque features one minaret and exhibits regional Islamic architectural elements reflecting the construction methods of eastern Kazakhstan
Built in 1834 by Tynybai Kaukenuly, the mosque stood as a central religious institution during the Alash autonomy period from 1917 to 1920.
The mosque functions as a center for Islamic education where local residents participate in religious ceremonies and study Arabic language and religious texts.
The mosque maintains specific visiting hours and requires visitors to follow traditional Islamic dress codes, including head coverings for women and modest attire.
The structure remains one of the few surviving wooden mosques from the 19th century in Kazakhstan, representing both religious and political heritage.
