Erenköy İstasyon Camii, Ottoman mosque in Kadıköy, Turkey

The mosque features a single minaret with one balcony, stone walls, wooden elements for the pulpit, and a marble mihrab with detailed patterns.

Commissioned by Trade Minister Mustafa Zihni Paşa during Sultan Abdülhamid II's reign, the mosque was constructed between 1900 and 1904 by architect Vedat Tek.

The interior of the mosque contains calligraphy works created by Sami Efendi, a master of Ottoman calligraphic art.
