Karaağaç Old Mosque

Karaağaç Old Mosque, a mosque built in the 1920s in the Karaağaç neighbourhood of Edirne.

At the time of its initial construction, part of the building was used as a pharmacy and part as a residence. After 1925, under the leadership of Hacı Osman, who came from Emirli village, it was converted into a mosque. In 1947, the mosque’s minaret was built with the contributions of a charitable person.

Located within a spacious garden, the mosque consists of two sections: a basement accessed by 14 steps from the ground and an upper floor. The mosque, which has a rectangular plan and a broken roof, has its main entrance on the western façade.

The mosque, taken under restoration by the General Directorate of Foundations on 5 May 2008, was reopened for worship again after seven months in the early months of 2009. The single‑shaped, single‑minaret mosque was registered as a Group 1 protected monument by the Edirne Culture and Natural Heritage Conservation Board with decision number 7697 dated 04.07.2003.
