The Islamic places of Mosul, Iraq, are of varied ages. They are usually mosques and shrines, but there are also madrasahs and miscellanous such as fortresses.

During the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant's takeover of Mosul in 2014, most of the structures here were demolished, mostly those that contained graves.
