Alaca Imaret Mosque, Ottoman mosque in Thessaloniki, Greece.
The Alaca Imaret Mosque features a prayer hall covered by two large domes and a portico adorned with five smaller domes in limestone construction.
Built between 1484 and 1487 by order of Ishak Pasha, the mosque included a minaret that was later removed after Thessaloniki's incorporation into Greece in 1912.
The structure combined religious functions with social services through its prayer hall and public charity kitchen, reflecting Ottoman community organization principles.
Located at Kassandrou 91-93 in Thessaloniki, the building currently serves as a venue for temporary exhibitions and cultural events.
The mosque received its name 'Alaca' from the colored stones arranged in diamond patterns that once decorated its original minaret structure.
