İğneci Hasan Mosque

It is stated that the masjid was built when a room located above the gate of the Çuhacılar Inn was converted into a masjid by İğneci Hacı Hasan Agha.
Mentioned inn was built by Nevşehirli İbrahim Pasha; it was rented out by foundations and the mosque was used outside the inn.
According to the Istanbul Encyclopedia, the masjid remained inside the building when the inn was built; in addition, Avadis Mesropyan, who was born in 1893 and came to Istanbul in 1904 and who had been a coffeehouse owner in the Çuhacılar Inn for many years, stated that the masjid was open for worship during the First World War (until 1914), had two sections with a lower and upper section, and was later closed and added to the inn as two rooms.
In 1964, there was a bedstead manufacturing facility in the lower part of the old mosque and a foundry workshop in the upper part, while the iron railing and the place of call to prayer facing the street remained standing.

The mosque is a small building located in the Grand Bazaar, accessed by stairs.
On the lower floor there is a small area and a place for ablution; on the upper floor there is the main part of the mosque.
Its walls, mihrab and minbar are decorated with tiles; its pulpit is made of carefully crafted wood.
There are two domes in the building, and the women’s gallery is reached on a single wooden pole.
It is also known as the “Çuhacılar Hanı Mosque”.
