The Qamariya Mosque (Arabic: جامع قمرية) is a mosque, located in the Karkh district of Baghdad, on the banks of the Tigris River, in the Baghdad Governorate of Iraq. Constructed during the late Abbasid era, it is one of the oldest mosques in Baghdad. The mosque is significant in that it constitutes a distinctive sign of the Abbasid era in Baghdad, as it was renovated several times by successive governments, but it has since retained its architectural value.
