The small village mosque is located in the old centre and was originally built in the 19th century. Today, the building is surrounded by a fence with a locked entrance gate. Thus, only a survey from the outside is possible.
The mosque is located in the northern part of the old village centre. The mosque in its present form was built in 1905, replacing an old mosque in the same location. It is very likely that there were other predecessor buildings on this site, as the Muslim heritage in this village goes back a long way. There is also a tradition that the original mosque was built on the ruins of a church, but this has not yet been verified.
The mosque is located in the middle of the old village centre. It is unknown when the mosque was built. Bağişkan assumes that the building dates from the Ottoman period. Extensive renovation work took place in 1882.
