Located in Tophane district, Nusretiye mosque marks the great difference in the Ottoman architecture. Intead of classicl plan, we have Baroque style mosque with onion shaped weight towers and fine slender minarets. This beautiful mosque was built by Sultan Mahmut II after he liquidated the Janissary order and given this unusual name "Victory".
