Carol Mosque
The Great Mosque of Constanța, also known as the Carol Mosque, was built between 1910 and 1913. Its name refers to King Carol I (1881-1914) who initiated the construction of the mosque, dedicated to the Muslim community of Constanta. Initially, the mosque was named "Carol I Mosque", then it was later renamed the Mahmoud II Mosque. The construction was carried out in the Egyptian-Byzantine style, with some Romanian architectural additions. It is the first building with reinforced concrete elements built in Romania.
