Muradiye Mosque
Şehzadeler, Manisa
A tiled Ottoman complex designed by Mimar Sinan and built in the name of Murad III in 1583–1585.
Its story
The Muradiye is the mosque of a complex Murad III had built in Manisa, where he served as provincial governor (sancakbeyi) while a prince. Designed by Mimar Sinan, the building was constructed of cut stone in the classical Ottoman style and completed with two minarets. The tiles inside are the mosque's most striking feature. The complex's madrasa housed the Manisa Museum for many years; the soup kitchen (imaret) building is also still standing.
