Caferiye Mosque
Caferiye Camii
A small Ottoman mosque built in 1645 on the main street of the old town, with an ancient stone minaret and a cemetery.
Built in 1645 by the merchant Hacı Cafer, the mosque has a square prayer hall topped by a single dome, and its stone minaret and gravestones in the front courtyard are well preserved. It lies on the old street between the Yakutiye Madrasa and the Grand Mosque, making it a small historic building worth a quick look while walking through the old town. It is free to enter outside prayer times. The visit takes only 10 to 15 minutes.
