Its story

The mosque, in the middle of the village of Bağlarpınarı in an area surrounded by a historic cemetery, a fountain and a pool, appears in inventory records as the Mirliva Muhammed Bey Mosque. The Hijri date 1219 in the inscription on its door shows that the building was built around 1809. The geometric decoration of the inscription, the cut-stone minbar and mihrab, and the floral motifs on the column capitals display remarkable stonework for a rural village mosque. In the graveyard northeast of the mosque are carefully carved historic cut-stone gravestones. It is a stop recommended on GoTürkiye's Bingöl routes together with the historic Bağlarpınarı cemeteries, Kiğı Castle and the Eskikavak Monastery.
