Seyit-Settar Mosque, Ottoman mosque in Simferopol, Crimea.
The Seyit-Settar Mosque complex includes a main prayer hall, a madrasah, student dormitories, and an administrative building within its grounds.
Built in 1850 by Seit Settar Celebi, the former head of Simferopol, the mosque operated until 1936 before being converted for economic purposes.
The mosque provides educational programs focusing on Islamic principles, Arabic literacy, Quranic recitation, and Crimean Tatar traditions for the local community.
Educational classes at the mosque are free for men over 15 years old, with sessions covering fundamental Islamic teachings and Arabic language instruction.
Following extensive renovations completed in 2016, the mosque complex now functions as both a religious center and an educational institution.
