Changes After Construction
The building was originally established as a wooden masjid.
Between 1925 and 1930, the masjid was in a well-maintained condition.
In the 1940s, the masjid fell into ruin; it was removed from the official staff register and sold.
The wooden structure has not survived to the present day; no physical trace of the old building remains.
The mosque that is open for worship today was rebuilt in 1998 after the loss of the historical structure.
During the last construction process, the grave said to belong to Serçe Hatun disappeared.
Featured Highlights
The present mosque is a reinforced-concrete reconstruction; it contains no structural elements from the historic wooden masjid.
The building was designed as a small-scale place of worship; this scale is reflected in the preference for a simple interior arrangement.
The inscription arrangement on the garden wall referring to Serçe Hatun is a distinctive element related to the continuation of the building’s name and memory within the site.
