Nasrullah Mosque ( Turkish: Nasrullah Cami) is a 16th-century Ottoman mosque in Kastamonu, Turkey.

It is located in Kastamonu just west of the Kastamonu Governor's Office and Gök River.

The mosque was commissioned by Kadı Nasrullah, a judge of the Ottoman Empire. It was built in 1506, during the reign of Sultan Bayazid II. The building underwent restorations in 1746, 1845 and 1945. [1]

The mosque has nine domes over six square columns each with the dimensions of 1.60 m × 1.60 m (5.2 ft × 5.2 ft). The narthex ( Turkish: son cemaat yeri) has seven domes over ten columns. The pretentious public fountain ( Turkish: şadırvan) of the mosque is in the courtyard to the north of the mosque. The mosque has two minarets.
