About the Laleli Mosque
The Laleli Mosque is an Ottoman imperial mosque of the 18th century in the Laleli neighborhood of Fatih, Istanbul. Sultan Mustafa III commissioned it as his imperial mosque and ordered the work before any major military victory, contrary to the practice of earlier sultans. Construction ran from April 5, 1760, to March 9, 1764. A contemporary writer recorded the official name Nur Mustafa, but the building became known as Laleli, the Mosque of the Tulips, after its neighborhood.
The building follows the Ottoman Baroque style of its period, with a layout based on the Selimiye Mosque of Edirne. Art historians attribute the design to Mehmed Tahir Agha, who was chief imperial architect when the mosque was finished; about 770 workers were employed, roughly two thirds of them non-Muslim. Its dome measures 12.50 m (41.0 ft) across and rises 24.50 m (80.4 ft) on an octagonal drum, with semi-domes around it. Two minarets stand at either end of the portico, and a courtyard arcade has eighteen domed bays.
The mosque anchored a larger complex that included Mustafa III's tomb, a caravanserai, a sebil and a madrasa. An earthquake in 1766 damaged the mosque and its complex, and a fire in 1783, recorded by one historian, also caused damage; the complex was fully restored that year. The sultan was buried in the attached mausoleum after his death in 1774. The madrasa was destroyed by fire in 1911.
