The Abbas Mirza Mosque (Armenian: Աբաս Միրզայի մզկիթ, romanized: Abas Mirzayi mzkit; Persian: مسجد عباس میرزا) was a seventeenth-century Twelver Shia Islam mosque, that was located in what is modern-day Yerevan, Armenia.
Prior to the mosque's construction, a 17th-century mosque existed on the same site. Rebuilt in c. 1817 in the period of Qajar Iran, due to the neglect of first the Tsarist and then the Soviet authorities, the mosque gradually fell into disrepair, constant looting disfigured the interior and façade, and the remains of the mosque were finally demolished in the late 1980s.
