Its story
Paşa Sultan Mosque is one of the historic mosques of Şabanözü and, with the wooden columns of its interior, reflects the Anatolian Beylik-period tradition of wooden-columned mosques. The wooden columns support a flat wooden ceiling; this building technique long survived in the rural mosques of Central Anatolia and the Western Black Sea. Detailed information in sources about the building's exact construction date and founder is limited. It continues to be an important place of worship for local people. Before visiting, the current status and opening hours should be confirmed locally.
