Oil Mosque

Turkey, Adana

For some reason I called this for years the Old Mosque (Eski Camii), but after careful inspection I conclude it simply is the "church part" of the Oil Mosque, before restoration. Part of the medrese can be seen to the left, it has changed a lot in aspect after restoration.


other sizes: small medium large original auto

This is "yað cami" or as you call "butter mosque". Originaly "Surp Hgop Armenian Chirch" or Saint Jacques. Note the Alter protruding on East wall, oposit site of minare.
Excellent site. Thank you.
