Kokkoz Jami Mosque

Sokolyne, Ukraine

The Kokkoz Jami Mosque, also known as Yusupov's Mosque, is located in the village of Sokolyne (Kökköz), Crimea. In Crimean Tatar, kökköz translates to “falcon”, just like the Ukrainian and Russian names. The mosque was built under the patronage of Prince Felix Yusupov in 1910 by a notable contemporary architect Nikolay Krasnov, the author of the imperial residence Livadia Palace.
