Latifiye Mosque
Latifiye Camii
A mosque built in 1371 under the Artuqid dynasty, with a richly carved north gate and a cool, quiet courtyard with a fountain.
Latifiye Mosque was built in 1371 by Abdullatif, an official of the Artuqid dynasty. Its north gate is famous for intricate geometric and plant carvings, considered one of the finest doorways in Mardin. The square minaret was added later. The courtyard has a fountain and shade trees, making it a rare peaceful corner of the old town. Entry is free outside prayer times, but please dress modestly. It sits in the western part of the old town, below the main street near the Mardin Museum.
