Souskiou Mosque

The mosque is located in the northern area of the original village centre. Not much is known about the history of the current mosque. In any case, it replaced a predecessor mosque on the same site. The present building was probably erected after the severe earthquake of 1953. Aerial photographs from 1963 show that it was the newest building in the village.

Mandria Mosque

The mosque is located in the western part of the old village centre. Not much is known about the history of the mosque. Bağişkan assumes that the building was erected at the beginning of the 20th century. Since the cadastral plans drawn up in the 1920s do not yet include the mosque, it can be assumed that it was built somewhat later.

Foinikas Mosque

The mosque is located in the western area of the old village centre. Little is known about the history of this mosque. However, the building has been renovated several times and the appearance of the building has also been changed. As in almost all parts of the Paphos district, the mosque here also suffered considerable damage from the Paphos earthquake of 1953. Most recently, the building, whose walls are made of natural and hewn stones, had a flat roof cast in concrete.
