Its story

Muradiye Mosque was commissioned by Sultan Murad II together with the bridge in 1443 and opened for worship in 1444. Originally it was part of a complex with a soup kitchen (imaret) and a madrasa; today only the mosque survives. In a repair in 1621 its dome was removed and it was covered with a lead-clad gabled (barrel) roof. In this form it is counted among the largest rectangular-plan, gable-roofed mosques of the Ottoman period.
