The mosque was built in 1579 during Ottoman rule. The commissioner of the mosque is İbrahim Bey of the Ramadanid dynasty, a Turkmen dynasty that ruled the region before 1517 and continued as a vassal of the Ottoman Empire during the rest of the 16th century. But according to the mosque information sign, there was an older mosque on the site of the Great Mosque, built during the Abbasid (Arab) rule in the 9th century. After Tarsus was conquered by the Byzantine Empire, the old mosque was converted into a church. But in the 14th century, Ramazanoğlu conquered Tarsus and in 1579 the mosque was rebuilt. Kırkkaşık Bedesten a Bedesten to support the mosque was also built in 1579.

The entrance to the courtyard of the mosque is through a monumental marble gate on the north. The 14-columned 16-domed nartex is decorated with tiles. The building material of the main building is hewn stone. The columns in the main building were joined with a half pointed arch, known as the Iranian Arch. The pulpit and the niche (facing Mecca) are made of marble.
