İhsan Bey Cami

One of our mosques that smell of Gaziantep history. Even though it is not too big, it feels very very spacious.

Its old name is Esenbek Mosque. Why did they change their name? A peaceful mosque.

It is understood that the building was built in the late 18th century in İhsan Bey (Esenbek) Mosque and Kasteli Inscription and foundation. It is a mosque with a transverse rectangular plan made of cut stone and a wooden roof. The last congregation place opens out with two columns. It is closed on both sides. There are two windows, two mihr evening dresses at the last congregation place and the place of worship is entered through the flat arched door. There are two nails with two columns inside, parallel to the Qibla wall. The sections are covered with cross vaults. The Qibla wall has two windows on four west. The mihrab is quite plain, the console exiting pulpit located to the right of the altar is exited through the window. The minaret, which is separate from the mosque, has twelve gene bodies with a square base. Cheers guardrail and cone are made of wood. There is a castelle with a pool in the courtyard, which is reached by a ladder.

After the restoration, the upper floor was removed and the minbar section was added later. Under the mosque there are castels.

It was built by the son of Ertene Esenbek in the middle of the 14th century. It is known by names such as Esenbek, İhsan Bey, Hasan Bey because of its sound similarity. It has a transverse rectangular plan with two sections parallel to the qibla. The north facade and the crown door are decorated with black and white stones. Its minaret was built in the courtyard separately from the mosque. The top of the balcony is without a crown, with a dome and a wooden eaves. The stonemasonry of the Şerefe sub-stalactites is one of the striking original examples. There is a castel under the mosque that used to meet the water needs of the mosque. Kastels are structures unique to Gaziantep, which are used as a place to rest and quench their thirst for people where ablution is performed and worship is performed. You can go down to the castel by 25 stairs made of black stone just in front of the courtyard door. The castel is partly carved in rock and partly cut stone. There is a square-shaped pool, resting benches and unique water channels. SOURCE gaziantepgezisi.com
