İsa Bey Mosque

Commissioned in 1375 by İsa Bey of the Aydınid dynasty (Aydınoğulları) and built by the architect Ali, this mosque measures 51 × 57 meters. Architectural elements brought from Ephesus and the Temple of Artemis, particularly columns, were reused in its construction. The pendentives of the dome are decorated with tile panels, while the window frames are adorned with muqarnas (stalactite) work, interlace motifs and colored stones. The mihrab and minbar are made of marble.

In addition to this mosque, Selçuk has four masjids (small mosques) still in use, as well as many ruined and restored masjids and tombs (kümbets). These historic buildings date from the Aydınid and Ottoman periods and reflect the region's rich cultural heritage.
