According to the sources, the mosque was built in the 15th century by Hacı Hasan Ağa, the armourer (silahtar) of Çandarlı Halil Pasha, on top of a cellar.
A fire on 3 June 1912 damaged the building and left it unusable, and it stood in ruins for a time. It was later repaired by the local community. In 1962 the portico, previously made of wood, was rebuilt in reinforced concrete and added to the structure.

15. yüzyılda, Çandarlı Halil Paşa'nın silahtarı Hacı Hasan Ağa tarafından bir mahzen üzerine yaptırıldı. 3 Haziran 1912'de çıkan yangında aldığı hasarla kullanılamaz hâle geldi. Bir müddet harap durumda kalan cami, ilerleyen dönemde halk tarafından onarıldı. 1962'de, daha önceleri ahşaptan olan revak, betonarme olarak tekrar inşa edilerek yapıya eklendi.

Duvarları moloz taşlardan, kemerleri ise tuğladan yapılan kâgir bir yapıdır. Kiremitle örtülü çatısı bulunan caminin mihrabı mermerden, minber ile kürsüsü ise ahşaptandır. Beş aralıklı son cemaat yerine sahipken tek şerefeli minaresi ise sürekli birbiri ardına sıralanan taş ve tuğla sıralardan oluşur.
