The mosque in Yalıkapı Neighborhood was built in 1810 and repaired in 1875 and 1916. During the Soviet administration, it was closed to worship in 1935 and turned into a shop. In 1990, it was given to the Christian 7th-day Adventist congregation and converted into a church. With the return of the Crimean Tatars to their homeland from exile, the ownership of the mosque by the Muslim community formed in Feodosia was the subject of a lawsuit. The 8 x 12 m rectangular planned wooden roofed mosque is in ruins. There is no trace of the minaret seen in the old photograph.
