Historical Museum Mosque / Korkut, Turkiye, Eastern , Muş


Yünören Mosque

The entrance door, which is enclosed in a rectangular molding, has a low arch and moldings have been made around it, and the facade part has been animated with different sized serrations to surround the door. The inscription of the mosque is written on the upper part of the low arch. The inscription and the decorations were made by enclosing them in a pointed arched hood. The inscription was destroyed due to natural disasters. The epitaph of the mosque, which was written in two lines with the scraping technique, cannot be read completely because it has been spilled from place to place. On the upper part of the inscription, plant and geometric ornaments were made in the form of a triangle. Before entering the harem of the mosque, a transverse rectangular section is entered. This section is covered with three crossover tones. The cross vaults were placed on four piers protruding from the wall, and the pediments of each pier were animated with three moldings. A lighting window is left in the middle of the cross vault in the middle section. An unadorned mihrab was built on the right side of the entrance and there are moldings on both sides of the mihrab. This part was kept slightly higher than the ground and a window was left in the west. A small door is left in the corner of the section to the left of the entrance.

The entrance to the harem is provided through a double molded door with pointed arches from the middle section. The harem space has a single nave and is covered with a barrel vault. The roof is reached by a low-arched door, which is accessed by 11 stairs integrated with the wall, just to the left of the entrance. The mihrab, which was built on the qibla wall of the mosque, was carved into the body wall. There were moldings on both sides of the mihrab. Two small windows for lighting are left on the upper part of the mihrab. In both mihrabs of the mosque, the eaves were left on the rectangular pedestal up to the mihrab level on the qibla main wall, and continued up to the eaves in the form of a semicircle. The mosque was built with smooth cut stone.
