Nakurdev Village is connected to Adigeni and is 34 km from Turkgozu border gate. The mosque of the village has a rectangular plan, measuring 9.44 x 9.92 m from the outside, and was built in 1337, according to the date on the entrance door. A place was added to the east of the work, which was made of smooth cut stone, and the windows on this facade were covered by brickwork. On the outer walls of the mosque, there are many bullet marks from the period of the Russian invasion attempt. Nakurdev Village Mosque was converted into a church in 1929 by Armenians from Kars. The mosque, which was probably used as a church until 1935, was turned into a place where cultural activities were carried out by raising its floor. The structure, whose original hand-drawings can be seen on the inner walls, is in a derelict state today.
