Huseyniyya Mosque

The Huseyniyya Mosque, also known as the "Tats" mosque, is a historical and architectural monument of the 19th century, built in 1825 in the city of Ganja, Azerbaijan. This magnificent temple was erected at the expense of Sabia Khanum, the daughter of the Iranian prince Bahman Mirza. At the end of the 19th century, in connection with the 100th anniversary of the birth of the great Russian poet A.S. Pushkin, the Huseyniyya Mosque was converted into a library. Today, this library bears the name of the famous Azerbaijani poet Nizami Ganjavi and contains about 10,000 books.
