a prayer niche inside, settled in the centre of the south-eastern wall, facing Mecca, the Muslim’s holy town.
It also has the base of a minaret on its west side, which is the only preserved part of this structure since the minaret itself hasn’t survived centuries. A small chapel is built next to the mosque dedicated to Agios Theodoros Trichinas and was inaugurated in 1899.
Unfortunately, the mosque is today closed to the public and opens only to host some musical exhibitions. However, it is still worth a visit, just to admire its architecture and to glimpse the interior through a window.
