Rustem Pasha Mosque in Istanbul (Updated → 2025)
Rustem Pasha Mosque is located in Eminonu, one of the liveliest districts of Istanbul. The mosque is located very close to Spice Bazaar and although it is a true architectural treasure, it is not well known by tourists.
Rustem Pasha was the Grand Vizier (Prime Minister) in the 16th century.
Rustem pasha first wife
Rustem Pasha, who was married to Mihrimah Sultan, the daughter of Sultan Suleiman, was one of the wealthiest people of the period.
Rustem Pasha had the mosque built by Mimar Sinan, the most famous Ottoman architect of the time.
Although the dimensions of the mosque are not very large, it is one of the most spectacular mosques in Ottoman history in terms of the richness of interior decoration.
As an Istanbulite, I love Eminonu, where the Old City meets the Bosphorus.
It is a great pleasure to visit local restaurants and eat street food in the streets surrounding the Spice Bazaar.
Visiting the Rustem Pasha Mosque is also something I do often.
