Originally constructed between the years of 743 and 744 AD, this is the oldest mosque in Azerbaijan.
During its long history, it has experienced numerous earthquakes, battle damage, and fire.

The mosque was destroyed in an earthquake in 1902, but it was rebuilt, and that's the basis of what we see today.
