The Kosonsoy Congregational Mosque is a historical monument in Namangan, Uzbekistan. It is built on a courtyard surrounded by a wall. It can be entered through a portal with a dome on the south side, or through a carved door on the west side that leads to a rectangular mosque. The west wall has a three-niche mihrab. The external dome is supported by four arches. The four arches are based on four side wings, which are themselves supported by separate or wall-attached wooden columns. The building is mainly decorated with two colors. The portal is simple, but elegant, with a row of small arches on the upper part, ending with a cornice, and surrounded by flat arches. The portal has a dome on each corner. In 1993, a veranda, classrooms and other additional buildings were constructed. The Kosonsoy Jome Mosque is the only prayer-style building in the Fergana Valley, and reflects the skill of local architects in construction.
