About this building
The construction of the mosque began in 1564 and was completed in 1572. The building is attributed to imperial architect Mimar Sinan, although it is possible that another architect supervised the works. The Behram Pasha combines the Ottoman style of the period when it was built with local features of Diyarbakır's architecture.
