The only mosque in Erzurum with its sundial in its minaret,nEgyptians made the first known sundial. In the usual sundial designs, the shadow of a vertically mounted bar falls on the dial that shows the hours of the day on a horizontally placed surface. As the sun advances in the sky, the shadow left by the end of the bar on the clock moves to coincide with different clock lines. In these designs, the bar needs to be aligned to the axis of rotation of the Earth. Therefore, in order for this type of sundial to show the correct time, the bar must be geographic north, not magnetic north.

Şeyhler Mosque was demolished by an old masjid in the same place and it was built by Erzurum Mufti Habip Mehmet in 1767.nnThere are two built-in columns on both sides of the entrance door. The mihrab is made of stone and results in muqarnas. There are also built-in columns. Two columns decorated with similar motifs are located next to the door.nnTo the right of the mosque, there is a single balcony minaret, and on its base, a sundial was made by Fehim Efendi, the son of the Prophet Abraham, to determine the prayer times.

The mosque was built of a cut stone, a square plan and covered with a dome sitting on an octagonal pulley. The transition to this dome is provided by internal tromps. The place of worship is illuminated by eight windows in the bottom row, three in the second row and three windows in the dome pulley. The last congregation is covered with three small domes, which are based on four pillars of the Kamber Stone of Erzurum. These domes are hidden from the outside with a conical roof.

It was built in 1771. In Şeyhler district .. Its stone architecture is very good. There is a sundial under the minaret and I take a picture of it once I go. You can check it on the internet. It would not be right to share someone else's picture.
