In the Staraya Tatarskaya Sloboda
Nurulla Mosque
The Nurulla Mosque is also referred to as the Sennaya Mosque after its proximity to the Senny Market and as the Yunusovskaya Mosque after its founder. In addition, it is also known as the Seventh Congressional Mosque. It was built between 1845 and 1849 using the funds of the Yunusov brothers. The white mosque comprises a two-storey building topped with a green cupola and a minaret. The minaret was destroyed in 1929 when the mosque was closed and used as accommodation and offices. It was only returned to worshipers in 1990 when it was renamed the Nurulla Mosque. It has since undergone restoration and its minaret has been restored.
