Juma Mosque dates back to the 10th century and was built with money donated by Khan Abdurakhman Mekhtar, who was in power at that time.
Juma Mosque is unique in structure – it has no portals, domes, galleries and an inner courtyard. There is access to the mosque from three sides.
The ceiling of the great hall is supported by 213 wooden columns. These columns were created in the XI-XV centuries and brought here from other ancient buildings.
There are small openings in the ceiling for light and ventilation. The southern wall has stalactite niches, and on the right there is a marble plaque indicating profits and estates. Of particular interest are the doors and columns, with handmade carvings.
