The Chin Mosque, completed in the 14th century, stands on Kichik Gala street in Baku's Old City near the Palace of the Shirvanshahs. Built in the Shirvan-Absheron architectural school tradition, this former Iranian mosque—also known as the Gazi Fezlullah bin Osman Mosque—represents a significant example of Islamic architecture from medieval Azerbaijan. No longer functioning as a place of worship, the structure was repurposed in 2012 as a numismatic museum within the National Museum of History of Azerbaijan, and is registered as a national architectural monument.
