The Agha Bozorg Mosque is a combined mosque and madrasa located in the center of Kashan, Isfahan Province, Iran, built between 1844 and 1850 by master mason Ustad Haj Sa'ban-ali in honor of the religious scholar Mulla-Mahdi Naraqi II. An inscription suggests initial construction in 1248 AH (1832/1833), though the main building campaign dates to the mid-nineteenth century. Executed in the Qajar architectural style using tile, plaster, and brick, the complex stands as a major tourist attraction adjacent to the fifteenth-century Khaje Taj od-Din Mausoleum. It was designated to Iran's National Heritage List on 3 December 1951.
