The analysis of the seismicity of the territory of Syria shows high seismic activity, which in turn can affect the further existence of architectural monuments, most of which are included in the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The article presents the results of a study of the seismic resistance of monuments of Islamic architecture on the example of the Great Mosque in the city of Aleppo, taking into account the seismic features of this territory. Deformations are determined and a comparison of displacements in the mosque due to seismic impact is made.
