The Jāmeh Mosque of Ardestan (Masjid-e Jāmeh Ardestan) is a Shi'ite Friday mosque (jāmeh) in Ardestan, Isfahan province, Iran. The oldest parts indicate a pre-Seljuk building, and it is possible the mosque was built on the site of a Chahartaq. The structure was incorporated in a Seljuk kiosk mosque in the 12th century CE, and further expanded to the classical four-iwan plan. The stucco decoration of the mihrab was altered during the Ilkhanate. The mosque was added to the Iran National Heritage List on 9 July 1932, administered by the Ministry of Cultural Heritage, Tourism and Handicrafts.
