Üç Şerefeli (Three Balconies) Mosque

The mosque's four minarets are its most famous feature.

All are uniquely designed with red and white stone, in various checker, star, and spiral patterns, so that they deliberately don't match each other.

Built in 1447 during the reign of Sultan Murad II

Old Mosque Complex

Edirne's Old Mosque (Eski Cami) is often overshadowed by the Selimiye Mosque but is well worth a visit.

This is the earliest Ottoman Imperial mosque in Edirne, dating from 1414.
