Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Like its modern namesake in the new town, this is the Ulu Cami or Great Mosque. Its location is given at Archnet, and it can be seen identified on several pictures. The remnants are often dated to Seljuk rule in the twelfth century. Art historian Aslanapa, who excavated the site in 1970-72, proposes a later construction date during the first rule of Qara Qoyunlu Sultan Qara Yusuf (1389-1400) based on a historical analysis of the d ecorative elements. A segment of a Ottoman period wall, part of a 1721 addition, has also survived to the west of the minaret.
