A Multi-Functional Building in Çanakkale: Kumarlar Village Mosque
Abstract :
Like many other villages in the neighborhood, Kumarlar village of Çan, Çanakkale was established by Turcoman and Nomads. The village mosque of 16th century district Çatalbergos is remarkable with its multi functional plan. The mosque dating from 19th century was restored in 1905. The plan of the mosque consists of a hall surrounded by a praying section and social rooms which remind the multifunctional system of early Ottoman zawiyah and imaret. In this manner, it has similarities with village chambers in zawiyah tradition. The embedded work on the ceramic and on the arc in the South front reminds us of early traditions. The ceramic plate is a semi porcelain material imported from Europe.
