Description:
The mosque is situated in the south part of the village, near a small creek. It is a mosque built of stone with a wooden structure, with three rows of beams placed horizontally. The stones of the walls are some shaped, others unshaped and fastened with an earth binder. The beams appear to have been nailed together, visible at at least two corners. The roof support beams appear to have been decorated by carving and have traces of clamping, without nails. The building is in an extremely poor condition, with the roof collapsed and the interior invaded by vegetation. The mosque was covered with tiles. The building had at least 2 rooms, separated by an interior wall. The mihrab, in the prayer room, is a simple niche in the stone wall and plastered with white. On the outside, on the north side, the mosque was surrounded by a stone fence, now completely collapsed. Near the north-western corner of building is a minaret, about 1.5 m from the mosque. The minaret is built of stone, a base about 2 m wide over which is the minaret tower, also built of stones.
