Bayrakli Mosque, Larissa


The Bayrakli Mosque is a historical mosque in Larissa, Greece.
The mosque is situated in the centre of the city, at the junction of Papaflessa and Ossis streets. Its masonry of brick-enclosed ashlar dates it to the 15th/16th centuries, contemporary to the bedesten market. Only two walls of the interior hall survive, incorporated in a modern structure.
The mosque reportedly derived its name from the fact that its imam used to hoist a flag to give the signal for the other mosques to begin the call to prayer for the faithful.
