Al-Atassi Mosque
Homs, Syria
The Al-Atassi Mosque (Masjid al-ʾAtāsīy), also known as the Great Al-Atassi Mosque, is a mosque in Homs, Syria. It is situated in a public park on the site of a former graveyard at the foot of the mound on which the remains of the citadel stand. Completed in 1913 CE, the mosque is named after Hashim al-Atassi, three-time Syrian President from the Al-Atassi family, a prominent landowning and politically active family from Homs. The mosque features a late Ottoman style that combines lead domes and slender hexagonal minarets. It is notable for the colors of the Aleppo marble in the mihrab and the ivory pulpit.
