Demolished or destroyed.
The Abbas Mirza Mosque was a Twelver Shia mosque in Yerevan, Armenia, built in the Qajar architectural style. A seventeenth-century mosque previously occupied the site, and the building was rebuilt around 1817 under Qajar Iran. Neglect by the Tsarist and then Soviet authorities, along with constant looting, led to its decay, and its remains were demolished in the late 1980s.
