The Yavuz-Sultan-Selim Mosque (German: Yavuz-Sultan-Selim-Moschee) is a religious building in Mannheim, Germany, named for Selim I. Until 2008 it was the biggest mosque in Germany, and attracts up to 3,000 Muslims every weekend.

Since the mosque was opened in 1995, Muslim shops and youth centers have become a magnet for the Muslim community.
