Alaüddevle Mosque

Alaüddevle Camii

An old-town mosque built in the early 16th century under the Dulkadirid dynasty, known for its striking black-and-white striped stone arches.

Alaüddevle Mosque was built around 1515 on the orders of Alaüddevle Bey, ruler of the Dulkadirid dynasty. Located in the Coppersmiths' Bazaar area, it is also known as the 'Coppersmiths' Mosque.' The courtyard and prayer hall entrance are built with alternating black and white stone, its slender minaret is elegant, and it preserves local architectural character. Visitors can step inside outside prayer times; shoes must be removed, clothing should cover arms and legs, and women should cover their hair. It makes an easy stop while wandering the bazaar.
