Changes After Construction
There are two sources stating that it was built by Mihrişah Hatun, the daughter of Vizier İskender Pasha, or by Hızır Bey, the first judge of the Mehmed II period, on behalf of his daughter Hacı Kadın.
In 1968, the women's gallery and the narthex were rebuilt in reinforced concrete by the mosque association; the mosque's mihrab was covered with tiles, and the minbar and the preacher’s pulpit were rebuilt in marble.
