The Tahtali-Jami Mosque (Crimean Tatar: Tahtalı Cami, Ukrainian: Тахтали Джамі, Russian: Тахталы-Джами, Turkish: Tahtalı Cami) is located in Bakhchysarai, Crimea. In Crimean Tatar, Tahtalı Cami means "wooden mosque."
History
[edit]The mosque was built by Beyhan Sultan,[1] a daughter of Selim I Giray, in 1707[2] or 1713-14.[3] It can be seen from almost any point in the old city. It was constructed using wooden planks, later closed in stone masonry.[4] The building was rebuilt by the local congregation in 1885 and used until it was closed in 1928. In 1989, it was restored and returned to the Muslim community.[5]
