At Ancient Malatya, approximately 8 km north of Malatya, stands the Great Mosque, which was built by the Arabs in the 7th century. This building was destroyed and, according to the inscription on it, during the times of the first Anatolian Seljuk sultan Alaeddin Keykubad, in 1224, by order of Mansur bin Yakub, it was rebuilt. With the renovations that started 25-30 years after its construction, it underwent considerable changes.
