Destination

Abbas Ağa Camii

Since it has no inscription, it is not known for certain by whom and on what date it was commissioned. However, judging by its architectural condition, it is dated to the XVIII-XIX centuries. The walls of the mosque, which has a transverse rectangular plan, are intact, but its upper covering has collapsed. The walls were built of stone below and adobe above. The harim is entered through a door opened in the middle of the northern facade.
