The Lonban Mosque (Persian: مسجد لنبان; Arabic: مسجد لنبان) is a Shi'ite mosque, located in the historic Lonban quarter of Esfahan, in the province of Isfahan, Iran.

Its current structure is rebuilt in the contemporary era, but some of the plaster works and paintings are from the Safavid age. Some of the inscriptions on the portal are the art works of Mohammad Reza Emami. There is an extraordinary wooden minbar which is one of the most exquisite artworks of the Safavid dynasty. Aboutorab Esfahani, a calligrapher of the Safavid era, was buried in the mosque.

The mosque was added to the Iran National Heritage List on 20 December 1937, administered by the Cultural Heritage, Handicrafts and Tourism Organization of Iran.
