Alsancak Hocazade Mosque, Religious building in Alsancak, Turkey

The Alsancak Hocazade Mosque features a classical Ottoman architectural design with white walls and multiple blue domes at the intersection of two main boulevards.

The mosque, constructed between 1948 and 1950, was funded by the Hocazade Ahmet Ragıp Üzümcü Foundation, established by a grape merchant from Karaburun.

The mosque incorporates traditional Islamic architectural elements with four rows of glass windows that illuminate the interior space and decorated stained glass features.

Located in a central area of Izmir, the mosque serves as one of the main protocol places for funeral ceremonies and daily prayers in the community.

The mosque holds distinction as the first religious structure built in proportion to the number of churches in the surrounding district of Alsancak.
