Arabahmet Mosque
The mosque, which is one of the well-preserved Classical Ottoman works in Nicosia, was built in the neighborhood of the same name in 1845 in the name of Arabahmet Pasha, the Governor of Cyprus, who participated in the conquest of Cyprus and was among the first foundation founders.
The mosque, whose floor was paved with 25 tombstones from the Middle Ages when it was first built, was later removed and transferred to the Nicosia Stone Works Museum during the repairs.
There is a fountain in the garden of the mosque and tombs of Turks such as Ishak Pasha and Kamil Pasha.
