Küre Akşemseddin Mosque
The Mosque was built by Hoca Şemseddin in 1473, who was known as the Minister of Finance (defterdar) of Mehmed the Conqueror. The mosque's dome and minaret are lead-covered. The main entrance is ornamented with mother of pearl inlay. The narthex is on the north side of the mosque has 3 domes. The tiles on the walls depict the Kaaba which date back to the year 1676. During the restoration, the entire lead-cover was renewed. When the restoration was completed in 2009 the interior rendering was completely scraped off and replaced by Khorasan mortar.
