Mahmoudiya Mosque (Jaffa) [Canvas]

Mahmoudiya Mosque (Jaffa) 

The Mahmoudiya Mosque (Masjid al-Mahmoudiya) in Jaffa, Palestine, is the largest and most prominent mosque in the historic port city, built between 1809 and 1812 by Ottoman governor Muhammad Abu Nabbut (also known as Mahmoud Agha) to serve Jaffa’s growing Muslim population and assert Ottoman authority. Constructed from white limestone in classic Ottoman style, it features a grand courtyard with a central ablution fountain, a tall slender minaret, intricate tilework, and a large dome supported by marble columns - some repurposed from Caesarea. Located near the old clock tower and bustling flea market in the heart of Old Jaffa, it was renovated in the 19th century and again in 2012 with Turkish funding. Administered as a waqf, it remains an active place of worship and a symbol of Jaffa’s Arab-Islamic heritage.
