Regarding this registered building in Şıhkıran village, Piraziz district: a tax register of 1547 mentions two imams named Pir Veli and Pir Mahmut in Nefsipiraziz village, while an avarız register of 1642 records a mosque built by a benefactor named Ali Gazi in a hamlet founded by Pirce Şeyh. This mosque, which we believe stood in the garden of the Nefsipiraziz village mansion and was made of timber, burned down in later years. Built in masonry, the structure has a rectangular plan running north-south (11.60 × 10.00 m).
