The Mosque of al-Nuri al-Kabir is a historic mosque located in Mosul, Iraq. Built in the 12th century, it is renowned for its distinctive minaret, known as the "hunchback" due to its unique tilt. The mosque served as a significant religious and cultural center for the local community and was an important landmark in the city. In June 2017, the mosque was destroyed during the conflict between ISIS and Iraqi forces. Its destruction marked a significant loss of cultural heritage, as the mosque was not only a place of worship but also a symbol of Mosul's rich history and architectural beauty.
