Summary

Description
English: This is the Ağca Masjid, the oldest religious building in Adana, built under Ağca Bey in 1489. In 1770 it was restored thoroughly under Hacı Hasan Ağa. It resembles a türbe from the outside. It was damaged in an 27 June 1998 earthquake, and was back at work in 2004. The building is quite close to the Ulu Camii. The building has nice decoration in stone on the inside as well as the outside.
