The Yalbugha Mosque (Arabic: جَامِع يَلْبُغَا, Jāmi‘ Yalbuḡā) was a 13th-century mosque on the Barada river in Damascus, Syria. It was built by the Mamluks in 1264[1] or by Yalbughā al-Yahyāwī in 1346–47.[2]: 286  During the reign of Ibrahim Pasha (1832–1840) it was converted to use as a biscuit factory.[3]: 145  It was demolished in 1974 to make way for a redevelopment. A modern mosque completed on 27 October 2014 stands on the site.[4]: 111 [5]
