Hüdavendigar Mosque, also known as Murat I Mosque, is a historic mosque in Bursa, Turkey. It was built by the Ottoman Sultan Murad I between 1365 and 1385 and named after him. The mosque is part of a large complex (külliye) that includes a madrasa (religious school), a dervish lodge (zaviye), a mausoleum (Türbe), a fountain, an imaret (soup kitchen), a bath, and a boys’ Koran school (sibyan mektebi). It was extensively renovated after the 1855 Bursa earthquake. The building features a reversed T-shaped plan. The site is included in the UNESCO World Heritage area “Bursa and Cumalıkızık: Birth of the Ottoman Empire,” inscribed in 2014.
