According to the sources, construction began in 1453 and the mosque was opened for worship in the same year. Over time the building fell into disrepair and was restored in 1753 under Sultan Mahmud I.

It went through several further renovations, one of them after the earthquake of 1894, and took its present form in 1898. The mosque was originally built as a single prayer building, and the fountain was added afterwards.
