Bürüngüz Mosque

Bürüngüz Mosque is a mosque in Melikgazi featuring a distinctive dome structure composed of twenty-one domes in total. The building has one large central dome, sixteen medium-sized domes, and four smaller ones that define its characteristic appearance.

The building replaced a smaller prayer house in 1977 and was financed by businessman Refik Bürüngüz. Its construction was an important project to expand the city's religious facilities.

The mosque serves the local Muslim community as a place for daily prayers and religious celebrations. People from the neighborhood gather here for festive occasions and communal worship.

The mosque is located at Cumhuriyet Square in the Melikgazi district and is accessible via local public transportation. Visitors should plan around prayer times and wear respectful clothing if entering the interior.

The building underwent specialized maintenance work in 2017 to preserve its minarets for future generations. This restoration was necessary to secure the architectural details of the structure for the long term.
