Burnaevskaya Mosque

Burnaevskaya Mosque in Kazan is situated on Akhtyamova Street, 7. Originally it was a single-story single-nave building but in 1895 it was expanded with an addition from the north and a three-tier minaret was constructed. The mosque was built in 1872 by architect P.I.Romanov replacing the previous wooden mosque of 1799. Architecturally it features coffered arches and carved decorative elements. Entry is through the lower level of the minaret from the northern side.
