Lala Mustafa Paşa Complex
Ilgın, Konya
An Ottoman staging-post complex in the middle of the Ilgın bazaar, consisting of a mosque, han, imaret and arasta dated 1576.
Its story
The complex was commissioned by Lala Mustafa Paşa, conqueror of Cyprus, in this staging-post town on the Istanbul–Konya road; the inscription above the mosque door gives the date 1576. It consists of a mosque, school, imaret, bakery, tabhane (guest house), han, arasta and fountain, and most of its sections have survived within the town's bazaar fabric. Ilgın is also known for its hot springs; in the hot spring area west of the town, a Seljuk-period bath section dated 1267–68 is still in use.
