The Konukboğan Mescidi (small mosque) has no firmly established construction date. It was designed as a single space on a rectangular plan. Since the interior has no partitions or load-bearing elements, the layout is strikingly plain. The absence of a minbar suggests it was built to serve as a neighborhood mosque. The building is entered through a low, pointed-arched doorway in the north wall, and this entrance is sheltered by a canopy added on the exterior. Notable decoration appears in the tympanum above the door: a cypress motif below and a six-pointed star relief above.
