The Khosrow Shir Mosque (Persian: مسجد خسروشیر; Arabic: مسجد خسرو شير) is a former Sunni mosque, now in ruins, located in Khosrow Shir, in the province of Razavi Khorasan, Iran. The mosque was completed in the 14th century, during the Seljuq era,[1][2] and its architectural style, a double-veranda, shares similarities with the Firuzabad Mosque.
The mosque was added to the Iran National Heritage List on 18 August 1998, administered by the Cultural Heritage, Handicrafts and Tourism Organization of Iran.
