The Eidgah Mosque (Dari: مسجد عید‌گاه; Pashto: د عیدګاه جومات) is one of the oldest mosques in Kabul, Afghanistan. It is located to the southeast of the affluent Wazir Akbar Khan neighborhood, near the Ghazi Stadium and Chaman-e-Hozori. It was built during the late 19th century and early 20th century, when the country was ruled by Emir Abdur Rahman Khan and his son Habibullah Khan.[1] It is now a historical site for tourists to visit.

The mosque has been used by large crowds of daily prayers, including during the special annual Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha prayers. It was the scene of religious festivals and special ceremonies, such as coronations, funerals, parades, and various other state functions attended by top government officials.[2] It was from this mosque that King Amanullah Khan made an announcement of his country's full independence in 1919.[3]
