Following by the conquest of Constantinople in 1453, It was the first Mosque constructed by the Ottoman Turks in Istanbul in 1458.
The Eyup Sultan Mosque is built near the Golden Horn Bay in Eyup District of Istanbul. But most interesting part is, after the conquest of Istanbul this mosque built outside the Walls of Constantinople.Since the city is taken over already, why Mosque is built outside of it?
Actually history of this Mosque has began almost thousand years ago before it's built.
