Iskender Paşa Mosque, Ottoman mosque in Sur, Turkey
The mosque stands in the center of Sur, with a single minaret rising from its stone walls and a large central dome dominating the structure.
Built during the Ottoman period, the mosque represents the architectural traditions of Islamic places of worship in southeastern Anatolia from that era.
The mosque functions as both a religious center and a gathering place for the local Muslim community in the Sur district of Diyarbakır.
The mosque opens daily for five prayer times and contains separate prayer sections for men and women with washing facilities for ritual ablutions.
The mosque incorporates local black basalt stone in its construction, reflecting the traditional building materials of Diyarbakır's ancient structures.
