Built by Erdoğdu Bey, the governor of Trabzon in 1577, the mosque stands in the neighbourhood named as Erdoğdu Bey. It had undergone a number of restorations which damaged its originality on a large scale.

Screened and elevated loges at the entrance of the last public section and the main prayer hall are wooden, and connected with each other from the top. Its prayer niche is vaulted in stalactite work, and each cusp is decorated with a rosette. On the upper side is an inscription which informs us that the mosque was repaired finally in 1899 (1317 in the Muslim Calendar). Its pulpit is wooden and decorated simply.
