The Bender’s mosques and churchs to the middle of the XIX cent.

Journal Title: Eminak - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 4

Abstract

The article is dedicated to mosques and Christian churches of the fortress and the city of Bendery. In them in Ottoman times there were at least 12 mosques – 9 in the fortress and 3-4 outside it. The remains of two of them (in the name of Sultan Suleiman) have been preserved. The name of the Cathedral Mosque (Munkar-Hamid) and its place at the Istanbul Gate are known, as well as the names of two other temples – Dagestan-Jami and Selim-Jami. Most likely, these three mosques were re-consecrated in the church in 1770, 1789 and 1807. One of them (Sultan Selim Khan?) was destroyed in 1826-1830 in connection with the construction of a new building of the Alexander Nevsky Church, and the minaret of the Cathedral Mosque was preserved until the end of the 1920s. The Greek Church may be appeared in the urban suburb about the middle of the XVIIth cent.
