The Mufti-Jami Mosque, (Russian: Муфти-Джами, Ukrainian: Муфті Джамі, Crimean Tatar; Crimean Turkish: Müfti Cami, Turkish: Müftü Camii) is located in Feodosiya, in Crimea.
Construction began on the mosque in 1623 and was completed in 1637. The mosque was built in the tradition of Ottoman architecture. After Crimea was added to the Russian Empire the mosque became an Armenian Catholic Church. In 1975 efforts were made to restore the building to its original appearance. Ownership was returned to the Muslim community and in 1998 regular services began.
