Its story

The Savur Ulu Mosque was built in the second half of the 19th century and is part of the old settlement fabric just below the district's castle hill. It is mentioned together with the castle, rock houses, stone mansions and churches that form Savur's historic appearance. Built of local cut stone, the mosque is one of the natural stops on a short walk through the district's narrow streets; it can be visited before climbing the castle hill or on the way back. As the mosque is open for worship, it is best to go outside prayer times.
