Polis Mosque

The Ahmet Subaşı mosque is a converted Byzantine church with the former ekklesionym Agios Nikolaos and is located in the north-western edge of the old village centre.

The mosque is located centrally in the old village area. Originally, this building was built as a church in Byzantine times, then later converted into a mosque. It is known that several major renovations and remodellings were carried out at the beginning of the 20th century and around 1930. The earthquake of 1953 then caused major damage, which was repaired from 1954-1956.

The mosque is located in the southern area of the old village centre.The present building is the successor to an earlier mosque that existed on the same site since at least 1921. According to the Bağişkan, the current building is one of the largest in the entire Paphos district. The previous building, like many buildings in the Paphos area, was so badly damaged in the earthquake of September 1953 that it had to be demolished and rebuilt.
