Atik Mustafa Pasha Mosque, Medieval mosque in Ayvansaray, Istanbul, Turkey.
The Atik Mustafa Pasha Mosque exhibits a cross-in-square layout with three apses and features a low dome constructed during the Ottoman period.
Originally built as a Byzantine church in 1059, the structure was transformed into a mosque by Grand Vizier Koca Mustafa Pasha before his death in 1512.
The mosque contains the tomb of Jabir ibn Abdullah, while archaeological excavations revealed Byzantine mosaics, marble elements, and frescoes beneath its floor.
Located near the Golden Horn and the land walls, the mosque presents both Islamic and Byzantine architectural features across its 15-meter width and 17.5-meter length.
Recent restoration work uncovered an ancient opus sectile floor, now visible through a glass walkway installed to protect the historical remains.
