History: The mosque has two different inscriptions; the first is on the north facade of the prayer hall, and the second is inside the prayer hall on the east wall. The first inscription bears the name Süleyman Efendi ibn El Hac Osman and the date 1870. Its inscription reads: "The benefactor and doer of good deeds, Süleyman Efendi ibn El Hac Osman, 1287/1870."
