I. Murad Hüdavendigar Mosque is a historic Ottoman monument in the Çekirge district of Bursa, Türkiye. Built during the reign of Sultan Murad I in the 14th century, it is notable for its unusual two-storey design, combining a mosque on the lower floor with a madrasa (Islamic school) above. The building reflects the architectural character of the early Ottoman period, with its traditional stone and brick construction and distinctive arches. It stands within the historic Hüdavendigar complex, near the tomb of Sultan Murad I, who played an important role in the expansion of the early Ottoman state. For travellers interested in Ottoman history and religious architecture, the mosque offers a valuable glimpse into Bursa's past. Visitors should dress respectfully and avoid disturbing people during prayers.
