Mer. Andızlı Cami

1277, Carl. AlhamduliLlyah

A mosque with original architecture that caught my attention while walking inside the castle. The protection and maintenance of this work is really worthy of our country ??

16 September 2018 I was at Andızlı Mosque. A historical mosque in Kaleiçi, in Tophane District. It was built by Emir-ül Haç Zade Bedrüddin Ömer, the Emir of Yalılar in 1227, during the time of Gıyaseddin Keyhüsrev. The mosque, which took its name from the andız tree in front of it, gained its present appearance in 1970. The courtyard, entrance door, three inscriptions and a part of the minaret have remained from the old building to the present day. It has an inscription showing that it was repaired in 1725. It is possible to see a fine example of carving art in the pulpit of the mosque, whose minaret is made of cut stone. In front of the building, partly under the narthex, there is a large Seljuk cistern and an old well called the Arab Well down the road. All our mosques are beautiful. As long as we fill them with congregation.
