Pertevniyal Mosque, Ottoman mosque in Aksaray district, Istanbul, Turkey
The mosque features a central dome measuring ten meters in diameter, supported by a high tambour with multiple windows and two spiral minarets.
The complex, commissioned by Sultan Abdulaziz's mother Pertevniyal Valide Sultan, replaced the Haci Mustafa Efendi Mosque and was constructed between 1868 and 1871.
The mosque incorporates elements of Gothic and Indian architectural styles while maintaining traditional Ottoman design principles in its prayer hall and marble decorations.
The religious complex includes a mosque, school, tomb, library, timekeeper's house, police station, six fountains, and seven shops across its 4000-square-meter grounds.
The exterior features four corner minarets influenced by Indian architecture, distinguishing it from other Ottoman mosques of the nineteenth century.
