Sinan Paşa Mosque

Various maintenance and repairs have been made to the mosque over time, and it has undergone restoration processes in the 19th and 20th centuries.
The Sultan’s Lodge (Hünkar Mahfili) of this single-minaret mosque has collapsed. The top of the mosque’s fountain has been covered with a marble ceiling to prevent the water in the pool from pollution.
A comprehensive restoration work was carried out in 2014.

Sinan Pasha Mosque was built by the famous Ottoman architect Mimar Sinan and is one of the most important examples of classical Ottoman architecture.
The mosque’s courtyard contains structures such as a madrasah, taps and a water fountain. These structures were ordered to be built by Sinan Pasha as part of the mosque complex.
The mosque, which has a central dome, reflects the traditional Ottoman mosque plan and draws attention with its interior decorations.
The mosque is an important place of worship both historically and culturally due to its location close to the Bosphorus and its central location in Beşiktaş Square.
The mosque, ordered by Sinan Pasha, stands out as a foundation work by the Grand Admiral for the navy.
The area where the mosque is located is the historical and commercial center of Beşiktaş with many historical buildings and squares around it, which makes the mosque important both as a place of worship and a place of visit.
