Malkocs Bey Mosque
Malkocs bég dzsámija
A 16th-century Ottoman mosque in the old town below Siklós Castle. Restored as an exhibition hall, it is one of the few Ottoman buildings left in Hungary.
Malkocs Bey Mosque was built during Ottoman rule in the 16th century, in the old town below Siklós Castle hill. Its square main hall is topped by a dome. It was later converted into a Catholic church and then restored to its original appearance in the 1990s. The interior has painted decorative patterns and an exhibition on the Ottoman period. The mosque is small, and a visit takes about 20–30 minutes. It can be combined with Siklós Castle. Opening hours vary by season, and in winter you may need to book ahead.
