We are fully contributing to the post-earthquake reconstruction process with our sustainable steel building model. The Narlıca Earthquake Martyrs Mosque, constructed in Hatay Antakya with a safe and long-lasting steel construction system, stands as a fine example of this.
We continue to build mosques that are earthquake-resistant, long-lasting, and quick to construct with our steel building system that offers high structural safety. The construction of the Hatay Antakya Narlıca Earthquake Martyrs Mosque was completed and delivered in just 48 days.
Following the February 6, 2023 Kahramanmaraş earthquake, described as “the disaster of the century,” there was a need for new mosques in the new living areas. While container cities were being prepared for emergency shelter after the earthquake, construction projects were also undertaken to meet social needs. Inspired by the need for a mosque in Narlıca, the charitable organization Özaltın Holding supported the construction of this mosque. The mosque was named Narlıca Earthquake Martyrs Mosque to honor the memory of the citizens who lost their lives in the earthquake.
Immediately after the earthquake, in March, the holding company officials contacted Karmod, and an evaluation was made regarding the mosque project. Considering the needs of the region and the location of the land, the mosque was designed with an area of 320 m². The mosque can accommodate 425 people at the same time.
The Narlıca Earthquake Martyrs Mosque, whose project phase was entirely carried out by the Karmod Technical Office, carries traditional lines in terms of architecture. The design phase of the project was largely inspired by traditional Seljuk architectural style.
The interior decoration and woodwork also feature elements inspired by Ottoman architecture. The mosque's minbar, embedded in the front wall, creates a unique concept. The pulpit is also concealed within the wall. The mihrab, minbar, pulpit, and muezzin's platform were constructed using wood. The muezzin's pulpit, made of limba wood, bears the hallmarks of Seljuk architecture.
The mosque was designed to ensure good acoustics. The windows were positioned to allow maximum daylight into the interior, making the interior as bright as possible.
Following project approval in April, production of the mosque began at Karmod's modern facilities and was completed in a short time. The installation site was prepared by mid-May, and the mosque's shipment was scheduled accordingly. The construction process, which began in mid-May, was completed by the end of June by Karmod's professional team.
