Circassian architecture is composed of both the architectural works made by Circassians and the ones taking an inspiration from the Circassian culture. Most of Circassian architectural heritage was devastated due to the Circassian Genocide, which killed up to 1.500.000 Circassians in their homeland. Deportation of Circassians have led to the rise of Circassian diaspora architecture, which was made by Circassian Mukhajeers and was built by Circassians abroad.
