The Hassan Bek Mosque (Arabic: مسجد حسن بك; Hebrew: מסגד חסן בק, romanized: Hasan Bek Camii; Turkish: Hasan Bek Camii), also known as the Hasan Bey Mosque, is a mosque in Tel Aviv, in the Central district of Israel. The mosque was built between 1916 and 1923 at the northern boundary of Arab Jaffa; its history is closely tied to the Arab–Jewish conflict. Completed in the Ottoman-style, the architecture of the mosque contrasts with the surrounding contemporary modern high-rises. It is located between the Neve Tzedek neighbourhood of Tel Aviv and the Mediterranean Sea, on the road to Jaffa.
