Nebi Mosque

The Nebi Camii (also called Peygamber Camii, Profet’s Mosque) was built on the orders of Süleyman in 1524. It is (according to the Wikipedia) called Profet’s Mosque because it contains many inscriptions in his honour. The minaret was financed by a wealthy citizen (1530) and has been moved by 5 meters during a rather recent restoration.
