The Jarchi mosque (Persian: مسجد جارچی) was built according to a Thuluth inscription above its spandrel in 1610 under the supervision of Shah Abbas' herald. The word Jarchi means herald in Persian. The mosque has a shabestan and is located in the Great Bazaar (Bazaar-e-Bozorg) of Isfahan. Decorations of this mosque are mainly destroyed.[1]
