Mosque
It was built in the southwest of the castle. According to Evliya Çelebi's Seyahatname and Sharia Court Registers, it is stated that it was constructed by Handan Bey in the 16th century. The mosque, which could not be used during the defence of Antep, was reopened to worship after having been repaired.
Handaniye (Handan Bey) Mosque, built in 1647 by Handan Ağa in the Karagöz Neighborhood, supported by a revenue-generating caravanserai, and rebuilt in 1791; it is a mosque that has survived to the present day despite being damaged during the Gaziantep Defense, notable for its historical and social significance.
