In spite of the fact that the real name of this historical mosque is Ahmed Pasha Mosque, due to the lead coating on its minaret, it became famous as the Kurşunlu Mosque.

We strongly recommend that you add the Kurşunlu Mosque to your Kayseri travel list, especially if you are interested in Islamic architecture.
