Summary

[edit]
Description
English: There is another mosque that is sometimes called the same, but this seems to be the real one. A notice indicates it is in the Vodina Road, Balat, and was founded by Sultan Mehmed who had it built in 1458. The minaret was formerly made of wood (now its stone and brick). The minbar was repaired in 1875. Inside it’s 8,6 meters square. I found it closed, inside I might have seen Kütahya tiles and a wooden roof. The direction of the mihrab is “among the most precise ones in Istanbul”. Though the mosque “has neither a graveyard nor a threshold (sic)” there is a grave in front of the kiblah wall of a person who “attended the battles for the conquest of Istanbul”.
