İshak Fakih Mosque
Merkez, Kütahya
A mosque from the last period of the Germiyanoğulları, with a stone-and-brick facade dated 1433 and 15th-century tiles.
Its story
Commissioned by İshak Fakih, a scholar of Islamic jurisprudence from Kütahya, the mosque dates from the last years of the Germiyan beylik. Its facade combining cut stone and red brick and its three-bay portico stand out. Its stone mihrab is framed by two-colored tiles with floral decoration typical of the 15th century. Because it stood among tanneries in the 17th century, it was also called the Tabakhane (Tannery) Mosque.
