What a beautiful and historic structure! It was totally worth the few dollars it cost to climb the tight spiraling stairs and savor the best panoramic views in the city. A must do when in the old town.

The mosque was built between years 1910 and 1913 by the initiative of King Carol I of Romania on the place of Mahmudiye Mosque built during Ottoman sovereignty. It is also called as the King Mosque. I have not heard that it was called as The Great Mosque till google maps and because it is quite small mosque to call as “great”:). You can climb to the minaret by paying I think 5 Romanian lei. No payment is taken from muslims or Turks. I saluted the lady at the booth in Turkish and she let me in freely. Local Muslim community in Constanta city are from Ottoman times and are Turkish and Tatar origin that speaks a dialect of Turkish. It is a nice place to visit and to watch the city from top. There are not many historical objects within city from that period of history.

Highly recommend to visit. We came, because we saw people standing on the Minaret. So we were curious.
We paid 6 Lei. Really interesting and unique architecture style.
The view is amazing.

For visits the mosque it’s open until 21:00 pm. 6 Ron cash for a ticket to have a beautiful view of the port and Ovidiu square. Excellent for sunrise and instagram pics :)

Biggest mosque in Romania and a historical landmark for Constanța City. Also a great view around if you climb the stairs all the way up, into the minaret.

This is the biggest mosque in Romania built by King Carol I in early 1910s. It was built for Turkish Muslim Community. You can get whole city views and black sea port views from the top of mosque. The cost is 6 Lei per person if you want to go to top.

Worth a visit just because of the view from the minaret.

The entrance is paid (6 lei for adult).

🕌 The mosque offers one of the highest vantage points in the city what makes it worth a visit just for that reason. The inside is not breathtaking but definitely a nice cultural wonder when visiting the city.

💸 Don't forget to pay for your ticket 🎟️ on the way in - the office is on the left and will charge you 6 ROM to get in.
