The Jameh Mosque of Ardestan is a Shi'ite Friday mosque in Ardestan, Isfahan province, Iran, built of brick and plaster. Its oldest parts suggest a pre-Seljuk building, possibly erected on the site of a Chahartaq. In the 12th century it was incorporated into a Seljuk kiosk mosque and later expanded to the classical four-iwan plan. The stucco decoration of its mihrab was altered during the Ilkhanate. It was added to the Iran National Heritage List on 9 July 1932.
