Burnaevskaya Mosque is a brick one-story building similar to a one-hall mosque with a minaret above the entrance. Elements of medieval Tatar and Russian architecture were used in the design of the facades.
The architectural style is national romance eclecticism. The Mosque has a neat, elegant design, both outside and inside. It is made of bright, red brick and is not covered with plaster on top. The building has survived to our time in its original form. It was decided not to plaster the walls, preserving their colouring. The facades of the building are represented by traditional ornaments of Tatarstan, which make the overall appearance looks quite elegant and catchy. The mosque has a minaret over the door. The main decoration of the minaret is the crescent moon. Its two horns act as a pointer to Mecca. Recall that Mecca is the main sacred place for Muslims.
The exterior is tastefully decorated, it is comfortable here. The predominant colours are green and yellow. Minaret dome, window frames painted green. there is a fairly comfortable atmosphere. The halls are equipped with high arched windows that add solemnity to the overall atmosphere. The most dominant feature of the mosque is the minaret which was built in 1895 by the architect Fyodor Nikolayevich Malinovsky.
The shape of the main building is a rectangle. The monastery consists of only one floor. In not organized two small halls for prayers. Both rooms communicate with each other. This is done so that on Fridays the temple can accommodate the maximum number of people. On this day, services are held for all comers, and the flow of parishioners is quite large. The mosque had three entrances, and for men and women the entrance was separate.
