The Jama Masjid is a Friday mosque, located in Mominpura, Nagpur, in the state of Maharashtra, India.[1][2] The mosque is approximately 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi) east of Nagpur Railway Station.[3]

The mosque was built in 1960,[4] has four minarets,[5] a garden to the north, and a vehicle parking area to the south. Renovations to the mosque were completed in 2019, following a lightning strike to its 39-metre (128 ft) minarets some time ago.[4]
