Tunceli Sungur Bey Mosque
Set by the
Murat River, at the foot of the Pertek Castle, the mosque was erected in 1569.
Later, and prior to the construction of the Keban Dam, the mosque was moved to
the centre of Pertek district a painstaking process that involved numbering
each stone and rebuilding to the same specifications. The crown gate and the
stonemasonry of the mihrab are gorgeous. Renowned for its ornamental wood
design, the mosque exemplifies Turkish architectural style and decorative art.
