Its story
The mosque was built in the early 15th century by Bayezid Paşa, grand vizier under Çelebi Mehmed. Ottoman and Mamluk craftsmen are known to have worked together on this inverted-T-plan building. Its portal and window shutters are counted among the finest examples of early Ottoman woodwork. Its appearance from the opposite bank and its location near the Künç Bridge make it easy to add to a riverside walk.
