Fatih Mosque

The Fatih Mosque is a mosque in Tirilye, which was converted from an 8^th -century Byzantine church dedicated to Saint Theodore. The building was built somewhere in the range of 720 and 730 AD, initially as the Church of Christ and Saint Stephen. After the Ottoman victory of the town, it was changed over to a mosque and named "Fatih", which signifies "success". The mosque was quickly rededicated as a congregation amid the Greek control of the region in the Greco-Turkish War of 1919– 1922.

The congregation is the most established Byzantine working in the area, and has ensured status. It is of the run of the mill Byzantine cross-in-square style and has Byzantine segment headings at the passage and an arch 19 meters 62 ft high. The mosque is entered careful a porch secured with a wooden rooftop which is remaining on four sections that have ornamented metal headings. The building has a mihrab that is secured with a half-arch.
