The Sancaktar Hayrettin Mosque is part of a former Eastern Orthodox monastery in Constantinople, converted into a mosque by the Ottomans.
It is generally believed that the small building belonged to the Byzantine Monastery of Gastria. The edifice is a minor example of Palaiologan architecture in Constantinople.
Trivia
- Sancaktar is Turkish for "standard-bearer."
