Al-Shaheed Mosque
- It seems like you might be referring to Al-Shaheed Monument (Martyr’s Monument) in Baghdad, as there is no widely known mosque by the name Al-Shaheed Mosque in the city. The Al-Shaheed Monument is one of the most iconic landmarks in Iraq, built in 1983 to honor the Iraqi soldiers who died in the Iran-Iraq War (1980–1988).
- The monument features a massive turquoise split dome, symbolizing Iraq’s strength and resilience. It is built over a circular platform surrounded by a reflecting pool, creating a breathtaking architectural effect. Inside the structure, there is a museum and exhibition space displaying photographs, artifacts, and tributes dedicated to Iraq’s fallen soldiers. The site serves as both a memorial and a cultural landmark, attracting visitors who come to reflect on Iraq’s history and sacrifices.
