The Bayrakli Mosque (Greek: Μπαϊρακλί Τζαμί, from Turkish: Bayraklı Camii, lit.'Mosque of the Flag-bearer') also known as the Hamidiye Mosque (Greek: Τζαμί Χαμηδιέ) is a former mosque on the island of Chios, in the North Aegean region of Greece. Built in 1892 during the Ottoman-era, it is one of the three surviving former mosques on the island, the other two being the Osmaniye Mosque and the Mecidiye Mosque, all three no longer used for Islamic worship.
