Süleyman I ordered to built the mosque in honor to Selim I. The Sultan Selim I complex included a hospital, a prayer school, a mausoleum, a double bath, a soup kitchen and a hostel for pilgrims. Only less remains from the original complex. As decoration the windows from inside are enriched with floral title panels. Additionally some of the windows have coloured glass arabesques. Medallions in the inside are inscripted with Suras from the Quran.
