The mosque is a very important structure for the religion of Islam. The minaret is an important element of the mosque. Even if the adhan was recorded and broadcast on the tape today, the muezzin adhan went up to the minaret and read it. Despite this difference, the minaret is an architectural element added to the construction of the mosque. It continues to be symbolically related to adhan and prayer. If there are minarets that survive such as the demolition of mosques over time, the new mosque is constructed by positioning it appropriately according to that minaret. Some minarets have survived to the present day and the mosque to which it is attached has been demolished. Some minarets, on the other hand, were positioned separately from the mosque during the construction phase due to land conditions, lack of space, and were built accordingly. In the buildings converted from a church to a mosque, the bell tower has either changed function without making any changes or has been converted into a minaret by adding honeycomb and cone to the upper part. It is also important that this practice has a symbolic meaning. In this study, it was tried to examine the minarets located separately from the mosque. The subject, which was handled in two main titles as out of Anatolia and Anatolia, was also examined in subtitles.
