Ağaç Ayak Mosque

Ağaç Ayak Mosque, Ottoman mosque in Altındağ, Turkey.

Ağaç Ayak Mosque is a house of worship in Altındağ built following traditional Ottoman design patterns, featuring a central dome and geometric ornamentation on its walls and surfaces. The interior is arranged with open floor space to accommodate worshippers, and natural light enters through windows along the upper sections.

The building was constructed during the Ottoman period when many mosques were erected throughout the region to serve growing communities. Since its founding, it has maintained its role as a place of prayer and community life in Altındağ.

This mosque serves as a gathering place for regular prayers and religious celebrations in the Altındağ area. People come here throughout the week to participate in the five daily prayers and to mark important Islamic occasions.

Remove your shoes before entering the prayer hall and plan your visit around the five daily prayer times when more people are present. Women should cover their hair and wear modest clothing to respect the religious setting.

The name means 'Tree Leg Mosque' and refers to the building's unusual construction where wooden support posts were used instead of stone foundations like those in most similar structures. This distinctive building method is still visible in how the structure is supported.
