Rejep Pasha Mosque, Ottoman mosque in Rhodes, Greece

The mosque features a twelve-sided dome atop a square room, with a cylindrical minaret rising from a polygonal base near the main structure.

Constructed between 1540 and 1541 under Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent, this religious building stands as the oldest among seven mosques in Rhodes walled city.

The mosque received its official operating license from the Greek Ministry of Education and Religion in 2019, marking a new chapter for the Turkish-Muslim community.

The structure requires extensive repairs, with restoration costs estimated at three million euros following the partial collapse of its portico in 2011.

An eight-sided fountain in the courtyard serves for ritual purification, while a mausoleum contains the sarcophagus of Rejep Pasha, the Ottoman Grand Vizier.
