Mukhtarov Mosque, Sunni mosque in Vladikavkaz, Russia

The Mukhtarov Mosque stands with two 33-meter minarets and a main prayer hall reaching 15 meters in height near the Terek River bank.

Built between 1900 and 1908 with funds from Azerbaijani millionaire Murtuza Mukhtarov, the mosque was designed by architect Józef Plośko in central Vladikavkaz.

The mosque functions as a primary religious center for the Muslim community in North Ossetia, hosting regular prayers and religious ceremonies throughout the year.

The mosque remains open for visitors and worshippers, with separate entry points and prayer areas designated for men and women following Islamic traditions.

In 1934, a cavalry regiment under Tatar command prevented the local authorities from demolishing the structure, ensuring its preservation for future generations.
