Its story

Karakaş Bey Mosque was commissioned in the 17th century by Karakaş Hacı Mehmet Bey; as its inscription has been lost, its exact date is debated. The building was repaired many times in the Ottoman period and in the early years of the Republic. Because it was demolished at an unknown date and rebuilt in reinforced concrete, most of its original fabric has been lost. Still, it is a stop that tells the history of the Karakaş neighborhood to which it gave its name.
