Elazığ has a quite old history
regionally while its history as a residential area is relatively new. For this
reason, we need to discuss the history of Elazığ together with the history of
Kharput. Until the Turkish domination, several old tribes established important
states and civilizations in the region. After 1085, Turks started to take
Kharput and its around out of being fortress and the military city, during the
reign of Ottoman Empire, it became the center of culture, art and trade by
leaving Turkish marks on every corner of Kharput. Kharput, which was famous for
its castle, schools and medresas, mosques, hans, baths, bazaars and artisans,
developed Elazığ, which is becoming an important center today by developing the
same features over time. The Kurşunlu Mosque, one of the most beautiful
examples of the Ottoman mosques in Kharput, is able to reflect the era it was
built to the future generations with its architecture, building material and
construction technique bearing the traces of its construction. This paper
provides a review of the history, design, materials used in construction and
the causes of the structural deterioration of the Kurşunlu Mosque in
Elazığ. Various suggestions are
presented according to the results of the research.
